군사격장 소음관련법령의 문제점과 개선방안

In order to prevent noise and compensate residents living in the affected areas as the noise generated by the military shooting range increases, the "Law on the Prevention of Noise and Damage to Military Airfields and Military Ranges" (abbreviated: Military Noise Compensation Act) was implemented on November 27, 2020, but the standards for compensation and the method of calculating the amount of compensation, the criteria for investigating the noise impact, and the relevant laws and regulations on the prevention of noise and vibration need to be amended. Although the selection criteria for compensation are targeted for payment to residents residing in noise control areas, there is still a dispute over issues in which the right to survive is threatened by infringement of property rights, such as compensation for workers other than residents, livestock damage, and the price of land. The standard amount of compensation shall be differentiated in consideration of the number of operating days in the noise control area, and the amount of compensation shall be paid on the basis of the Supreme Court decision issued in 2010, and the standard for the period of more than 10 years is judged to be the same amount that does not take into account the rate of inflation in the past, and the standard for the payment of compensation also needs to be reconsidered. It is said that noise impact can also be excluded from the investigation if sound insulation facilities are installed or if the shooting room is indoors, but the existing military shooting range that has not carried out noise simulation and noise measurement cannot guarantee the performance of the sound insulation facility and needs to be verified for its function, so the exception standard for noise impact investigation should be redefined. The Military Noise Compensation Act can be seen as a passive measure to solve the problem of noise as compensation in the event of an occurrence, but active measures such as the revision of the Noise Prevention Relations Act as a preventive measure to prevent the occurrence of noise from the source and minimize damage are necessary. In accordance with the law, the Military Noise Compensation Act and the Noise and Vibration Management Act require measures to fundamentally control noise sources, including control standards for defense and military facilities projects, and noise prevention measures such as noise prevention facilities necessary to prevent noise by engineering to block noise from the origin. In addition, soundproofing facilities such as sound insulation walls that can block out shooting noise should be determined after the noise simulation review so that they can be cut off from the source of the shooting noise. Until now, due to the increase in civil and military conflicts caused by noise generated by the military shooting range of the National Defense and Military Facilities Project, the Military Noise Compensation Act has been compensated, but we would like to propose a solution to prevent active disputes.
