Reasons
1. Basic facts
(a) The relationship between the parties;
(1) The plaintiff (Appointed Party) and the designated parties (hereinafter "the plaintiff et al.") are residents living in the new monthly Dong, Seocheon-gu, Seocheon-gu, Hacheon-gu, and Hacheon-gu, Seoul Special Metropolitan City in the vicinity of the Kimpo International Airport (hereinafter "Mapo International Airport"), and the plaintiff et al. resided in their own house, and are written in [Attachment Table] and “transfer” and “retirement” column.
(2) The Defendant is a person with the authority and responsibility for the management of an airport, including the taking-off and landing of an aircraft, pursuant to the provisions of Articles 75, 94, 80, 112, 132, and 147 of the Aviation Act.
B. History of the Kimpo-Gongju
(1) Since the first construction of a runway in 1939, the Kimpo Airport expanded the runway by the United States Armed Forces from 1951 to 1957, and was designated as an international airport on January 30, 1958, and newly constructed an international line 1 terminal through the first phase expansion project from 1975 to 1980.
(2) In order to cope with the increasing demand for transport of aircraft in the Seoul Metropolitan Area and to promote the efficiency of transport of passengers following the holding of the 88 Olympic Games, two-stage expansion projects have been implemented from 1982 to 1987. The existing runway extension (3,200m x 45m x 3,600m x 45m) and the new runway (3,200m x 45m x 45m ; hereinafter “second runway”) and international line 2 terminals were newly established. The second runway was opened on April 1, 1987.
(3) On March 29, 2001, the international air routes located in the Kimpo Airport moved to the Incheon International Airport, which was newly constructed on March 29, 2001, and thereafter only the domestic aircraft and some international vessels use the Kimpo Airport.
(c) Aircraft noise;
(1) Characteristics of aircraft noise
Aircraft noise is a shock that occurs in large quantities over the air due to metal high-frequency, so damage areas are extensive compared to other noise sources.
(2) Unit of noise measurement
Awacle (WECNL) is used as a unit of measuring aircraft noise levels (WECNL, an average total noise volume such as an increase, etc., rightsed Equival noise volume (hereinafter “WECNL”). This is also the same in Japan and international aircraft organizations, taking into account the fact that the aircraft noise rate varies depending on time per day, and even the same size of noise differs depending on the degree of intensity experienced by an individual depending on the situation or time, etc., and after measuring the noise level at one time at one time at one time in one area, the noise level is calculated by giving weight according to time, and the specific calculation method is stipulated in Article 273 of the Enforcement Rule of the Aviation Act. In Korea, the aircraft noise level was adopted according to the “noise, process test method” publicly announced by the environmental wife on November 5, 191, and also the same applies to Japan and international aircraft.
Meanwhile, the Framework Act on Environmental Policy, which provides environmental standards to be observed by the State or local governments at the time of the enactment of Acts and subordinate statutes, the establishment of administrative plans and the implementation of projects, provides that the criteria for environmental noise are 50dB per week for exclusive residential areas, 40dB at night, 55dB at night for general residential areas, 65dB at night for commercial areas, 65dB at night, 70dB at night for commercial areas, 65dB at night, 75dB at night for industrial areas, 75dB at night for roads, and 70dB at night for roads, respectively (WECNNL value is the same as the amount obtained by adding approximately 13 to the DB value).
(3) Damage caused by noise
When a person has been exposed to noise above a certain level for a long time, he/she suffers from mental suffering, such as chronic anxiety, degradation of concentration, frequent galquality, etc., and has a lot of difficulties in normal daily life, such as wheel interference, telephone conversations interference, television and radio watching disorder, interference with reading, suspension of accident, interference with water surface, etc., and if the degree is serious, there is a possibility that physical disorder, such as hys or hys, may occur.
(4) Countermeasures against aircraft noise
In general, the noise countermeasure measures for aircraft noise, there are noise generating costs, airport surrounding measures, introduction of low noise aircraft, improvement of takeoff and landing methods and procedures, restriction on night flight, etc. as measures around airport, creation of buffer green belt, relocation support, support of house soundproofing construction, support of TV reception failure, making a tour health examination, etc. as part of measures to reduce aircraft noise in the Kimpo Airport, the defendant and the Korea Airports Corporation are conducting maintenance and operation regulations for aircraft late night hours, aircraft noise precision measurement and investigation into the actual conditions of noise areas, prohibition of aircraft noise noise countermeasure, opening of public hearing, installation of soundproof walls, installation of soundproof facilities, development of noise-proof programs, resident surveys on installation of housing soundproof facilities, etc. as part of measures to reduce aircraft noise in the Kimpo Airport.

[Reasons for Recognition] Unsatisfy, each entry in Gap evidence 1 to 5 (including each number), and the purport of the whole pleadings
2. Occurrence of liability for damages;
A. The parties' assertion
(1) Plaintiff et al.’s assertion
The plaintiff et al. suffered from the plaintiff et al. due to the defects in management in which the plaintiff et al. failed to take appropriate measures against the noise of the aircraft by installing a buffer zone in the airport and its surrounding areas or restricting the frequency of takeoff and landing of aircraft and installing additional noise prevention facilities. Thus, the defendant is obligated to compensate for the damages due to the plaintiff et al.'s failure to comply with Article 5 of the State Compensation Act. The plaintiff et al. is liable to compensate for the damages due to the plaintiff et al. for the damages for three years prior to the transfer of the international vessel in the Kimpo-public port of March 29, 2001 to the Incheon International Airport (each 547,500 won) and for three years prior to the filing of the lawsuit in this case from August 30, 2003 to June 30, 2009.
(2) The defendant's assertion
① The aircraft noise of this case naturally leads to an operation of an aircraft. The occurrence of noise itself is scientific, technical, and physical impossible. Therefore, as long as the Defendant conducted noise countermeasure projects by making its best efforts within the scope of the budget under the Aviation Act and other relevant Acts and subordinate statutes, including the Aviation Act, the Defendant has no negligence related to the installation and management of the Kimpo Airport, and the Plaintiff et al. has occupied after the aforementioned designation and public announcement even though she knew her place of residence was designated as an area damaged or anticipated to be damaged, even though she could have sufficiently avoided noise damage, and even if she could have anticipated that she would have sufficiently suffered noise damage at the time of moving into the area, she has occupied the area by itself. In light of this, it should be recognized that high number of liability should be recognized in light of this, and ③ the part claiming damages (547,500 won each, 500 won) for three years prior to the transfer of the international vessel of Kimpo Airport from among the Plaintiff et al. to the Incheon International Airport, the short term statute of limitations expires.
B. Determination
(1) Whether there is a defect
(A) Determination criteria
"Defect in the construction or management of a public structure" as provided by Article 5 (1) of the State Compensation Act refers to a state in which a public structure, which has been built for public purposes, is in a state in which the public structure does not have safety requirements to be equipped for its intended purpose (see Supreme Court Decision 2002Da9158, Aug. 23, 2002). The state in which safety is not satisfied, i.e., a state in which there is a risk to harm others, includes not only the state in which the physical or external defect or deficiency in the physical facility itself, which constitutes the public structure, is in a state in which the users are in danger of causing harm to others, but also the state in which the state and degree of its use exceeds a certain limit, and the state in which the public structure is used for public purposes, causes damage exceeding the extent expected to be acceptable by social norms to third parties (see Supreme Court Decision 2002Da14242, Mar. 12, 2004).
In addition, the criteria for limits of admission shall be determined individually in accordance with specific cases, comprehensively taking into account various circumstances such as the nature and degree of infringement as well as the degree of infringement generally infringed rights or interests, the nature and characteristics of the local environment, the environmental standards secured by public law regulations, environmental standards to prevent or mitigate infringement, the existence of measures to avoid damage or to avoid damage, and the degree of difficulty thereof (see Supreme Court Decision 2003Da49566, Jan. 27, 2005). The elements to be considered in mitigation of damages are not considered in the scope of limits of admission or the defendant's exemption, as delineated below.
(b) Consideration of specific elements
원고 등 중 다수는 항공법 시행규칙상 소음피해지역 또는 소음피해 예상지역으로 지정된 지역에 거주하여 온 기간이 1990년대 중반부터 현재까지 10여 년 정도로 장기간인 점, 소음으로 인한 피해는 원고 등이 당해 지역에 거주하는 한 계속될 것이고 피고나 관련 기관의 피해방지대책은 단기간 내에 이루어지기 힘든 점, 김포공항은 군사비행장에 비해 공공성이 크지 아니한 점, 환경정책기본법 제10조 제1 , 2항 , 동 시행령 제2조 [별표 1]에 의하면 공업지역은 주간 70dB, 야간 65dB로 각 규정하고 있는 점, 2004. 7. 3. 제3종 소음구역 중 다 지구(75WECPNL 이상 80WECPNL 미만)가 소음피해 예상지역에 포함되었으나 아직 이에 해당하는 지역이 지정·고시되지 아니한 점 등을 종합적으로 고려하면, 김포공항 주변의 소음침해가 환경정책기본법상 공업지역의 주간 소음도인 70dB(≒ 83WECPNL)과 유사한 수치인 80WECPNL 이상의 소음에 노출된 지역에 거주하는 원고 등에 대하여 수인한도를 초과하여 위법성을 띠는 것이라고 인정함이 상당하다.
In addition, residents in the area exposed to noise that exceeds the generally accepted limit are suffering from mental suffering due to noise, possibility of physical damage, danger, and interference with life, and suffering from mental suffering. Such damage is identical to the basic part regardless of the difference in the living conditions of each individual, such as the plaintiff, etc., so even though there is a little difference in the nature and degree of mental suffering due to the infringement, risk of physical damage and interference with life, it is reasonable to deem that the plaintiff et al. suffered the same degree of damage according to the living area and living period. Accordingly, the defendant is liable to compensate the plaintiff et al. who resides in the area of noise level exceeding 80 WECN, for damage caused by aircraft operation.
(2) Whether the statute of limitations expired
Article 766(1) of the Civil Act, which is the starting point for starting the short-term extinctive prescription of a claim for damages by a tort, means not only the occurrence of the damage and the tortfeasor should be known, but also the time when the harmful act became known that it may claim damages by reason of such tort. In the event that the damage continues to occur as a result of continuous tort, unless there are special circumstances, the damage shall be deemed to have been extinguished by each time when the damage becomes known to each of the new tort in the application of Article 766(1) of the Civil Act (Supreme Court Decision 98Da30285 delivered on March 23, 199).
Therefore, since June 21, 1993, the date when the plaintiff et al. started residing in each area as of June 21, 1993, the date when the damage occurred due to aircraft noise, illegality of harmful act and the perpetrator was known, it is reasonable to view the starting point of the statute of limitations for the right to claim damages of this case as the date when the plaintiff et al. were transferred respectively to the plaintiff et al.
Therefore, the part of the plaintiff et al. claiming damages before August 30, 2003 (the part stated in the "amount" column 547,500 won) among the part of the plaintiff et al. which claimed damages before the plaintiff et al. had expired before the lawsuit of this case. Thus, the defendant's defense
3. Scope of damages;
A. Criteria for calculating the amount of consolation money
Comprehensively taking into account the facts recognized by the Plaintiff, etc., the amount of consolation money for mental suffering from aircraft noise that takes off and land at Kimpo Airport from August 30, 2003 to June 30, 2009 shall be calculated by multiplying 2,000 won a day by the number of days of residence for those who reside in the area of at least 90WPNL, and at least 80WPNL but less than 90WPNL by the number of days of residence for each person who resides in the area of at least 90WPNL from August 30, 200 to June 30, 209.
(b) Grounds for reduction;
Even if the general public lives in a high seas and other dangerous areas, there are many cases where it is difficult to accurately know the existence of such risks at the time of approaching the risk, and where it is difficult to deem that the existence of such risks is acceptable by considering various circumstances, such as the process and motive of approaching the risk, it is reasonable to consider the factors to be reduced in accordance with the principle of equity in calculating the amount of damages (Supreme Court Decision 2003Da49566 Decided January 27, 2005), and the Plaintiff et al. as a person transferred after June 21, 1993, which is the date of designation and public notice of the area where aviation noise damage was anticipated, without recognizing the aircraft noise infringement or without recognizing it by negligence, to reduce 30% of the amount indicated in the column of “fixed amount” in [Attachment Table].
C. Sub-decision
Therefore, since the specific amount of damages for the plaintiff et al. is the same as the statement in [Attachment Table], the defendant is obligated to pay damages for delay calculated at each rate of 20% per annum under the Civil Act from September 12, 2006, the day following the delivery day of the copy of the complaint of this case to October 9, 2009, and 5% per annum under the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Promotion, etc. of Legal Proceedings from the next day to the day of full payment, as requested by the plaintiff et al.
4. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff et al.'s claim against the defendant is justified within the scope of the above recognition, and the remaining claims are dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
