Abstract: Siwha dike that is 12. 7 kilometers and connects Oi island located at Jung-Wang-dong Siheung-si Kyunggi-do and Bang-A Meori in Ansan-si has been constructed in 1994. However, it gave rise to the serious water pollution of Siwha lake because it intercepted sea water circulation into the bay of Siwha after construction. Finally, the government decided to rehabilitate the Siwha lake as Sea water lake in 2001. Siwha Tidal Power Plant (TTP) project has been planned as a counterplan. The main goals of this project are, therefore, to improve the water quality of the Siwha lake by sea water circulation and to maintain flood control capacity of the sea water lake as well as stable power supply.
