SEA Process Environmental Assessment Conceptual Stage of Planning Process Formation of PERS Committee PERS Committee Consultation Preparation of Alternative of Plan Collection of Opinions Final PERS Statement Draft PERS Statement Review and Consultation of PERS Statement Conformation of the Plan by Reflection of the PERS results Presidential decree, Article 8-2 -Formulate the PERS Committee consist of Expert, NGO, Officials, Representative of Civil Group, Stakeholder, and etc. Presidential decree, Article 8-2 -Demonstrate the draft PERS statement for more than 20days - Public hearing should be hold upon request FAEP, Article 25-3 Presidential decree, Article 8-2 Consultation Periods should not exceed 30 days - Scoping - Alternatives of Plan - Determine the Range of Public Participation

SEA Committee Consist of 10 members including government officer, NGO, experts and etc Formation of SEA Committee Review of General Subjects for SEA - Review of General Aspects of the Plan - Review of Environmental Indicators for SEA - Review of Alternatives Confirmation for General Procedure for SEA - Scoping - Methods for Analysis - Scope of Analysis, etc Management SEA Committee

IndicatorsAssessment Area ◦ Policy for Dam Construction ∙ Analysis of the Background and Purpose of the Plan on Environmental Aspect ∙ Improvement of Policy for Dam Construction ∙ Correspondence with Environment Policy ∙ Sustainability ◦ Consistency of the Plan ∙ Consistency with Existing Plan relation & relation between relevant plans ◦ Dam Site ∙ Environmental Appropriateness of the Sites Selection of Indications for the SEA (Scoping)-1 Preparation of Check-List Appropriateness of the Plan

Environmental Adequacy Selection of Indications for the SEA (Scoping)-2 IndicatorsAssessment Area ◦ Natural Environment ∙ Impacts to Ecological Soundness ∙ Impacts to the habitat (Flood, fauna) ∙ Impacts to the natural landscape ◦ Ambient Environment ∙ Impacts to the Environmental Standard ∙ Impacts to the Human ◦ Land use ∙ Impacts to the Conservation Area ∙ Possibility of Urban sprawl

Evaluation of Alternatives Prediction and Evaluation-Appropriateness of the Sites Selected Sites on 4 Major River Basin Where Water Shortage Happened Compare the Sites with National Environmental Map Exclusion of Sites (Environmentally Sensitive Area) Selection of Sites through Field Survey Selected 8 Sites from 4 Major River Basin

Assessment Methods for SEA & EIA PERS EIA Environment al Indicators for natural resources & Local environment Geology & Topography Biodiversity Land use Climate & Air Quality Water Soil Waste Noisy Landscape Environmental indicators for natural resources Geology & Topography Marine Ecosystem Hydrology Land use Air Quality Water Quality Soil Waste Climate Flora & Fauna Noisy Odor Electric Wave Shading Landscape Health Environmental Indicators for local environment Link of Assessment Items for SEA & EIA

Assessment Methods for Each Environmental Indicators ItemsSEAEIA Geology, topography o Description of geology & topography necessary to preserve o Characterization of geology & topography o Affected area and measures o Loss prevention and use of surficial soil or fertile soil o Restoration or use plan of borrow pit o Estimation & measures due to soil loss and sedimentation o Conservation of excessively slant area Flora, Fauna o Identification of species distribution, species diversity, and designation of conservation sites o Establishment of conservation measures 8th grade of degree of green naturality o Establishment of conservation measures in 1 st grade of ecologial degree of naturality o Change estimation and measures of flora and fauna o Estimation and measures due to hot water discharge o Consideration of breeding season, habitat of migrant birds and so on o Effects and estimation due to habitat destruction of flora and fauna o Measures of natural vegetation conservation and share of green zone Hydrology o Status of water resource use and water supply plan o Effect and measure of quantity on river network o Effects and measures of river bed and watershed o Estimation and measures of rive maintenance flow

Assessment Methods for Each Environmental Indicators ItemsSEAEIA Land use o Analysis & evaluation of site selection considering near land use Air Quality o Investigation for sufficient distance from the project site to the impact area, and formation of buffer zone o Identification the relationship between wind velocity and pollutant dispersion o Identification emission source o Comparison of emission source and emission rate with national ambient levels o Identification of mitigation measures o Estimation effects of scattering dust at construction or operation o Review of fuel plan and heat supply process Water o Analysis of relationship between water supply plan and water consumption o Relationship between master plan of sewer and wastewater treatment plan o Analysis & measures of determining to meet the total water pollution load management standard o Measure of wastewater treatment o Estimation of water quality and measure of water quality conservation o Mitigation measures of non-point source pollution o Measure of leachate treatment o Conservation measures of ground water quality and quantity Noise, Vibration o Estimation & measures of mobile source (traffic, airplane and so on) noise levels o Identification & measures of Noise source o Estimation & mitigation measures of noise and vibration due to explosive use and so on o Layout plan on fixed source pollution (Factory, facilities and so on) Landscape o Use of the existing landscape and making plan considering the characteristics of land use are o Quantitative review and measures of effects due to change in main view points

Assessment Methods for Each Environmental Indicators ItemsSEAEIA Population o Measures to densely in habitual district o Environmental effects & measures to densely in habitual district Housing o Connection plan of road network in residential area o Environmental effects estimation & measures of residential area Industry o Estimate the change in industrial structure o Estimation & measures to fishing right, farms, crop and so on Public Facilities o Effects & measures of capacity to public facilities Education o Effects & measures of capacity to education facilities Traffic O Analysis & measure of relationship between change of traffic volume and transportation plan o Review of the suitability of site, and capacity for parking lots and transfer o Selection and adequate lay out of line of trees Cultural properties o Effects & measures of cultural or historic sites in relation to the project o Identification of surficial geology in historic sites o Protection measure of any historical or cultural resources etc.

Implementation of SEA & EIA Achieve systematical management of SEA and EIA Links between EIA & SEA Links between EIA & SEA EIA Policy Plan Program Project SEA Results Plan Review SEA Results Public Consultation Baseline Study Program Review SEA Results Policy Review SEA Results SEA Results SEA Results Possible to skip Simplification SEA EIA

Government established policy direction for implementation of the SEA by enhancing the PERS The new PERS has been implemented by June, 2006 Established the implementation methods for SEA and EIA to cope with the dispute associated with implementation of the two EA system Developed assessment methods for the SEA and EIA based on the characteristics and data availability at the stage of policy, plan, program, and project-established tiering system SEA Guideline for water resources is under developing Conclusion 4 4
