파리 협약에 따른 post-2020에 대비하기 위한 환경영향평가(EIA : Environmental Impact Assessment) 측면에서의 온실가스 감축방안을 모색하였다. 2010~2019년 금강유역환경청의 EIA대상사업 중 26건의 환경영향평가서(EIS : Environmental Impact Statement)를 사례분석한 결과로, ‘온실가스 항목’은 대부분 형식적으로 작성된 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구에서는 EIA시 ‘온실가스 항목’의 형식적 평가를 개선하기 위한 방안으로서, 1) EIA대상사업별 온실가스 배출량에 따른 배출부과금 할당, 2) 『환경오염시설의 통합관리에 관한 법률』에 근거한 ‘허가배출기준 설정’에 ‘온실가스 항목’의 추가, 3)이해당사자들이 EIA대상 개발사업의 초기단계에 참여하는 거버넌스 확립으로 온실가스 감축 등을 제안하였고, 구체적인 내용을 논의하였다.

In order to cope with the post-2020 in accordance with the Paris Agreement, greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction in Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and its contributions to post-2020 were discussed. The 26 Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) administered by Geum-River Basin Environmental Office from 2010 to 2019 were analyzed for reviewing GHG mitigation measures. From the case study, it was found that the assessment of GHG emissions reduction and climate change adaptation were not appropriately performed. In this study, the following measures are proposed to improve the inappropriate assessment of ‘GHG subject matter’ associated with EIA according to post-2020, 1) allotment of enforced charge on GHG emission during the EIA process, 2) addition of the ‘GHG subject matter’ in ‘establishing permissible discharge standards’ which is based on 『Act on the Integrated Control of Pollutant-discharging Facilities』, and 3) the participation of stakeholders in early EIA stage for governance. Also the details on the EIA for the preparedness of post-2020 were discussed here.
