CCS를 위한 주민지원법제화 방안에 관한 연구

Due to industrialization, the climate change has been intensified. Various solutions are being prepared as measures against climate change, and one of them is CCS. CCS (Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage) refers to a technology to collect carbon dioxide from source of emission or from business and to store it underground to quarantine it from the atmosphere for a long time. Since CCS is not well-known, it is yet difficult to form a social consensus. Moreover, as it is categorized as waste under the Waste Control Act, it is hostile among people. Therefore, to correctly and efficiently apply CCS, it is required to obtain a social consensus. As shown especially in the United States and Netherlands, it is very important to gain a social consensus, and this consensus comes from communication. For efficient administration of CCS, the plan of communication is required. The plans for residents support to create a social consensus may be discussed, and if applicable, these shall be legislated. To create a social consensus of residents, the safety of CCS shall be secured and assured for residents, and the laws and regulations shall define the methods, subjects, and procedures of residents support. Furthermore, the committee for communication with the public shall be established as well.
