Résumé The purpose of this Act is to contribute to preventing disasters and improving the living environment by providing for matters necessary for the maintenance, utilization, management, and conservation of small rivers. The Governor of a Special Self-Governing Province or the head of a Si/Gun/Gu (referring to the head of an autonomous Gu; hereinafter the same shall apply) shall designate small rivers. Related managing authorities shall separately determine the method of management of a small river located on the border of a Si/Gun/Gu (hereinafter referred to as "trans-boundary small river") in consultation with one another. When there exists land to be newly included in a small river area due to a plan for maintenance of small rivers or various construction plans, a managing authority may designate such land as land reserved for a small river. Each managing authority shall formulate a comprehensive plan for maintenance of small rivers (hereinafter referred to as "comprehensive plan") which will serve as guidelines for approach to the maintenance of small rivers every ten years, as prescribed by Ordinance of the Ministry of Security and Public Administration, and obtain approval of the comprehensive plan from the Mayor/Do Governor. Where a disaster is likely to occur or where a managing authority deems it particularly necessary for the maintenance and conservation of a small river, the managing authority shall NOT grant permission, and may restrict the installation of artificial structures in land reserved for the small river.
