In this study, a design strategy is proposed to restore the distorted urban water cycle to the natural water cycle through the LID facility. This is accomplished by determining the optimal LID facility design capacity through which flow duration curves remain the same before and after urban development. A part of the Noksan National Industrial Complex in Busan was selected as the study area and EPA SWMM was constructed to simulate long-term stormwater for various land use scenarios and LID facility design capacity. In the case that the study area was assumed to be a forest area or an agricultural area before urban development, it was found that it was necessary to allocate 7.3% or 5.5% of the impervious area to the area of the bio-retention in order for the flow duration curve to remain the same as before urban development. As a result of the sensitivity analysis of the bio-retention design capacity according to regional rainfall characteristics, the design capacity of 3.8~5.5% of impervious area is needed for the development of agriculture area. Therefore, it can be seen that the optimum capacity can be significantly different according to regional rainfall characteristics. On the other hand, as a result of analyzing the sensitivity of the design capacity according to the variation of the depth of each layer constituting the bio-retention and the size of contributing catchment area, the sensitivity of the optimal design capacity with respect to the design specifications of the bio-retention and the size of contributing catchment area was not significant.

도시지역의 도로, 교량 및 주차장과 같은 포장지역은 작은 면적이지만 강우 시 다른 토지이용에 비해 강우 유출량이 높고, 상수원인 하천의 종 및 횡방향으로 존재하기 때문에 직접적인 오염 원인으로 작용하고 있다. 이에 대한 대책으로 최적관리기법(Best Management Practices, BMP) 또는 저영향개발(Low Impact Development, LID)과 같은 관리 방안을 적용하여 강우에 의해 발생되는 강우유출수와 비점오염물질을 동시에 저감하는 방안이 연구되고 있으나, 모델링을 통한 비점오염물질 배출량의 정량화와 저감시설의 성능평가에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 주차장 지역에서 발생하는 비점오염물질의 배출량 모의 가능성을 평가하기 위해 국내 외에서 강우유출수의 모의와 저감시설의 성능평가에 많이 사용되고 있는 MUSIC(Model for Urban Stormwater Improvement Conceptualization) 모형과 SWMM(Storm Water Management Model) 모형을 이용하여 강우유출수 수문 수질 모의를 실시하여 각 모형의 적용성을 평가한 결과, 두 모형 모두 총 유출체적 오차가 ${\pm}6%$ 이내로 수문모의에 대한 적용성이 우수하게 나타났지만, 수질의 경우 SWMM 모형이 MUSIC 모형에 비하여 오염물질의 배출량을 실측치와 가깝게 모의함으로서, 결과적으로 대상지역에 대해 SWMM 모형이 MUSIC 모형에 비해 주차장의 초기우수현상을 더 잘 재현하는 것으로 나타났다.

The pollutant removal efficiencies of stormwater runoff by settling were analyzed using field samples collected in 4 different raining events in a test bed installed in the Gwanpyung-Cheon stream in Daejeon. A 1.8 m high with 30 cm diameter cylindrical settling device was used for the settling test by measuring concentration of TSS, TP and TN for time and height. The pollutants removal rate was relatively high in the first 4 hours while 24 hours seem to be necessary to reach steady state in pollutant concentrations. However, there were no considerable differences in concentrations for height at a given time. This indicates most of particulate pollutant in the test seems to show independent settling with no interference to each other. Much part of particle sizes were distributed in the range of $10{\sim}100{\mu}m$. Average particulate fractions of TP and TN were estimated as 52.4% and 23.5%, respectively. This results explain why TN is difficult to remove by simple settling. This study indicates that a simple settling can provide effective method to remove significant amount of TSS and TP effectively and this can be used to protect urban river water quality.

This study investigated the runoff characteristics containing NPS pollutants in urban areas and estimated the optimal number of storm events to be monitored. 13 residential areas, 8 commercial areas, 9 transportation areas and 11 industrial areas were selected to be monitored located in urban areas. Monitoring was performed from 2008 to 2016 with a total of 632 rainfall events. As a result, it was found that commercial area needs priority NPS management compared to other landuses because the commercial area has high runoff coefficient and NPS pollutant EMC compared with other landuses. The annual monitoring frequency for each landuse was estimated to be 11 to 14 times for industrial area, 12 to 14 times for transportation area, 11 to 13 times for commercial area and 22 to 25 times for residential area. Even with the use of accumulated monitoring data for several years, there is still high probability of uncertainty due to high error in some pollutant items, and it is necessary to establish monitoring know-how and data accumulation to reduce errors by continuous monitoring.

Stormwater runoff from urban road area as non-point source has a tendency of including lots of pollutants at initial rain period. Recently, there are several cases of having installed treatment facilities for reducing pollution discharge from the impervious cover in urban area to prevent watershed environment from getting worse. The filtration type among non-point source treatment systems has been known as one of the most efficient system for treatment of non-point source pollutants. Therefore, various kinds of filter media such as expanded polypropylene(EPP), granular activated carbon, zeolite, perlite, illite, sand, gravel has been developed. This study was conducted to verify performance and hydraulic characteristics of filter media as measures for non-point source. The experiment was carried out to evaluate applicability and variation of 4 kind of most popular filter media(EPP, GAC, Zeolite, Perlite) in headloss with elapsed time and influent flow rate and to obtain data base that could be used to establish management plan for road runoff treatment. In experiment by tap water, it showed that EPP and perlite those are floatable materials showed stable operating performance and lower headloss than the others.

In this study, we conducted a survey to examine the runoff characteristics of nonpoint sources, which wash off pollutants from the surface of basin during rainfall and affect water pollution of streams. An Anyangchun basin in the region Ewiwang City was selected as a study site. The basin divided into several subbasins such as Wanggokchun, Ojeonchun, and Anyangchun based on the tributaries, which confluence to the main stream of Anyangchun. Four times of field examination had been carried out between July and August of 2000, and water quality data collected from the surveys had been analysed. The survey includes in-situ flow, DO and PH measurements in the outlet of catchment. Laboratory analysis includes BOD, TN, TP. From the result, pollutant by runoff of nonpoint sources were washed out along with stormwater in the beginning of rainfall, and flowed into streams resulted in stream pollution. In case of BOD, the load from Ojeonchun catchment, most of which included urban areas, took up 50% of the total load from the entire watershed. Thus, by the results, it is clear that runoff load by urban nonpoint sources plays an important role in the control and management of nonpoint sources for the watershed.

Rapid urbanization increases the risk of hydrologic disasters due to the increase of impervious areas in urban areas. Precipitation characteristics can be transformed due to the rise of global temperatures. Thus urban areas with the increased impervious areas are more exposed to hydrological disasters than ever before. Therefore, low impact development practices have been widely installed to rehabilitate the distorted hydrologic cycle in the urban area. This study used the Stormwater Management Model to analyze the water quantity and quality of the Mokgamcheon which had been severely urbanized, considering future climate scenarios presented by various general circulation models (GCMs). In addition the effectiveness of permeable pavement by 27 sub-watersheds was simulated in terms of water quantity and quality considering various GCMs and then the priorities of sub-watersheds were derived using an alternative valuation index which uses the pressure-state-response framework.

Recently, runoff characteristics of urban area are changing because of the increase of impervious area by rapid increasing of population and industrialization, urbanization. It needs to extract the accurate topological and hydrological parameters of watersheds in order to manage water resource efficiently. In this paper, rainfall-runoff analysis in An-Yang stream basin was made using GIS(Geographic Information System) and XP-SWMM(Export Stormwater and Wastewater Management Model). The basin was divided into 13 sub-basins using GIS. The area, slope, width of each subcatchment and length, slop of each stream reach were acquired from topographic maps, and imperviousness rate, land use types, infiltration capacities of each subcatchment from land use maps and soil maps using GIS. We gave th runoff management method of urbanization area us ing XP-SWMM.

Recently, it was realized that a significant portion of pollution from urban areas originates from non-point sources such as construction sites, washoff from impervious surfaces, and sewage input from unsewered areas and combined sewer overflows. Especially, Urban stormwater runoff is one of the most extensive cause of the deterioration of the water quality in streams located in urban area. The objective of this study was to investigate runoff characteristics of non-point pollutants source at the urban area in the Suyeong River. Water quality variations were investigated at two points of Suyeong River during a period of 10 rainfall events. Concentration difference of non-point pollution source appeared big by precedent number of days of no rainfall. In addition, Event mean Concentration (EMCs) that well represents runoff characteristics of storm water during rainfall, was calculated, and runoff pollutants loading was also examined. The probability distribution of EMCs of BOD, COD, TOC, T-N, T-P, and TSS were analyzed and the mean values of observed EMC and the median values of estimated EMCs compared through probability distribution. Other objectives of this study were the characterization of discharge from non-point source, the analysis of the pollutant loads and an establishment of a management plan for non-point source of Suyeong River. Also, It was established that the most important thing for the administration of non-point pollution source is to come up with the solution for the reduction of effluent at the beginning.
