마리나항만 이용활성화를 위한 마리나항만법 개선방안 연구

Abstract

The Republic of Korea has experienced continuous increase of demand on marine leisure activities in recent 20 years. However, the development of marina and its facilities in which marina ships are moored and stored would not meet the increased demand. In order to address such issues, the government of Korea legislated in 2009 the Act on the Development and Management of Marinas (hereinafter referred to as the Marinas Act) and began to foster marina industries as a policy matter. Nevertheless, in practice, a number of marinas has been developed on the basis of legislation other than the Marinas Act, and at the moment the reform of the Marinas Act is necessary in order to promote use of marina which is constructed based on the Marinas Act. In particular, the definition of marina ship under the Marinas Act should be revised more specifically in terms of its registration and safety survey, ensuring effectiveness of the regime. Also, marina from various legislation should be managed in an integrated manner by introducing the definition of small marina into the Marina Act. In addition, the regulations about the approval for the business plan of the marina development should be amended ensuring legal status of the project implementer and the Marina Act should be provided expressly as the basic law for the development and use of marinas and their facilities so as to promote the development and use of marinas based on this law. Such reforms can be considered as providing the basis for comprehensive development of marina as a whole and also providing institutional framework in order for meeting the growing demand for marina.
