ABSTRACT

Until now, the control of rainwater penetration has been considered critical such that rainwater should be passed through sewers. However, the growing damage from drought due to climate change has increased the need to control rainwater efficiently through penetration or undercurrent and secure rainwater as an alternative water source. This study examined and analyzed the laws and regulations governing rainwater use facilities, their enforcement rules, and the current water situation in island and mountain areas. Currently, since desalination or artificial rain cannot be considered as a sustainable measure in island areas, rainwater storage should be installed to secure water supply. Besides, water supply for farmland can be secured in mountain areas through the installation of rainwater storage. It is deemed necessary to enact an ordinance concerning rainwater usage and to expand the rainwater usage facilities through the promotion, national support and pilot projects.
