Policies for urban water cycle in Korea 1 Government Policy Agenda Action Plan UNESCAP: Green Growth(2005),Seoul Low Carbon Green Growth (2008) Past 60 years Economic growth Creating New 60 years (Aug. 15, 2008) Next 60 years Low carbon Green growth Today, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Republic of Korea, I want to put forward Low Carbon, Green Growth as the core of the Republic s new vision If we make up our minds before others and take action, we will be able to lead green growth and take the initiative in creating a new civilization Administrative Priority 1. Economic Revival (Creative Economy, ) 2. Happiness of the People (Public Safety, ) 3. Cultural Enrichment 4. Foundation for Peaceful Unification Administrative Priority 2 : Happiness of the People (4 Strategies, 64 Administration Subjects) Strategy 15: Disaster Prevention & Systematic Management - Subject 92: Reinforcement of National Disaster Management System (Expansion of Sewer Pipe & Storage Facilities) Strategy 16: Promotion of Pleasant & Sustainable Environment - Subject 99: Adaptation of Climate Change (Restoration of Sustainable Water Cycle System: Application of LID Concept) 8

Policies for urban water cycle in Korea 2 Laws on Water Cycle Management Urban Water Cycle Management & Water Use Efficiency 1960 ~ Development of water resources Fundamental Law Flood protection, Social amenity, environmental protection Framework Act on The national Land Development of stable water resources Framework Act on Environmental Policy Occurrence of water pollution accident Limits on natural resources Framework Act on Low Carbon, Green Growth Balance of development and environment Water Supply and Waterworks Installation Act (Rainwater harvesting) Law Ordinances Countermeasures Against natural Disaster Act (Runoff Reduction Facilities) Water Quality & Ecosystem Conservation Act (Measures of nonpoint pollution) Suwon City(Framework Ordinance on IWM, 2009/ Ordinance on the Water Cycle Management, ) Law to Promote & Support Water Reuse (Rainwater harvesting Grey water Reuse of treated wastewater) Special Act on Waterfront Development (Application of LID Technologies in Land Use Planning) Sewerage Act (Wastewater Storage Facility) Urban Park Act (Installation & Management Standards of Detention) Namyangju City(Framework Ordinance on Water Management & Water Cycle, ) Law to Support Green Building (Evaluation Item: Water Cycle Management) Enforcement Rules on Decision, Structure & Installation Criteria of City & County Planning Facilities (Restoring the Natural Water Cycle) Law Amendments to Promote & Support Water Reuse (Installation Obligation for the Private Sector Such as Multi- Residential House, Large Stores, Golf Course etc. Seoul Metropolitan(Framework Ordinance on Restoring Water Cycle & Low Impact Development, ) Law(Draft) Law to promote and support for urban development of water cycle(draft),

10 3 Efforts and accomplishment of Seoul Metropolitan 10

11 1 Vision and Goals Vision Creating Sound Water Cycle City With Citizens Promotion Goals Reducing Urban Runoff for Restoring the Natural Water Cycle Activation of Rainwater Harvest and Water Reuse managing 620mm of rainfall equivalent to 40% of annual pre cipitation by 2050 year Management Strategies for Water cycle city Safe and clean water cycle city Sufficient and recycling possible water cycle city Water cycle city with nature and citizens 11

12 1 Vision and Goals Vision: Creating Sound Water Cycle City With Citizens Objects: Restoring the natural water cycle Managing 40% of annual rainfall to not run-off flow Policy arrangement Official administration structure Practical outcomes Citizen participation Ordinances enactment Prior consultant for LID Rainwater managing task force team Applying LID facilities Extension of permeable pavements Water Cycle citizen committee Water Cycle expo and exhibit 12

13 2 Policy Enforcement Situation Enactment of Promotion and Support for Water Recycle Basic Ordinance ( 12.5) Establishment of Plans for Management of Water Recycle to 2020 Objective: about 14.4% for total water usage to water reuse (210M ton/year) Enactment of Water Cycle Recovery & Low Impact Development Basic Ordinance ( 14.1) Assigning Rain-sharing Amount to for the Water Cycle Recovery Mandatory of Prior Consultation for Low Impact Development 13
