South Branch Rockaway Flood Water Study
The paper reports on a study to analyze in detail various methods of storm water management. The technical studies were carried out in an actual watershed setting to arrive at a recommended...

Control of Select Priority Pollutants in Stormwater
A simulation program to generate the runoff quantity and quality for each storm event over a 5 year period was written. Chemical loading rate data from highways was used. Runoff was considered...

The Effects of Long Term Withdrawals on the Mid and Lower Hawthorne Aquifers, Cape Coral, Florida
The paper reports on a study to assess the water resource availability of two artesian aquifers (the mid-Hawthorn and lower Hawthorn) in Cape Coral, Florida. The impacts of future withdrawal...

Data Base Development and Analysis for Water Distribution Systems
There have been a number of studies estimating the costs of repairing, replacing, or renovating aging distribution networks. Although useful in general terms, characterizing a system by...

A Shoppers Guide to Urban Stormwater Micro Software
Due to limited information provided by the ads, potential users may need to call or write to several vendors (or perhaps even purchase several packages) before finding one to meet their...

Application of Interactive Computer Simulation to Water Resources Problems in Civil Engineering Education
The major educational advantage of interactive simulation is expedient demonstration of system management and control procedures and interrelationships among system variables. An 8 year...

Levees at St. Louis?More Harm Than Good?
The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Louis District (SLD), conducted an evaluation into the effects of Federal flood control projects on St. Charles County. Questions to be addressed...

Turbidity Control Measures Associated with Reclamation of an Abandoned Phosphatic Waste Clay Pond
Area 3A in the Tenoroc State Reserve near Lakeland, Florida is an inactive and abandoned phosphatic waste clay area. The disposal area has been inactive for several years and the clays...

Overview of EPRI'S Solid Waste Environmental Studies
The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) initiated a comprehensive research project in 1983 with the long-term goal of improving and validating methods for predicting the fate of chemicals...

The Microcomputer as an Intelligent Workstation in Large Scale Hydrologic Modeling
In an effort to improve the efficiency of the hydrologic modeling activities of the Maryland State Highway Administration (MSHA), a cooperative project between MSHA, the Federal Highway...

Urban Stormwater Investigations by the U.S. Geological Survey
Urban stormwater hydrology studies in the U. S. Geological Survey are currently focused on compilation of national data bases containing flood-peak and short time-interval rainfall, discharge...

A Micro-Computer Simulation Model Based on South African Hydrology
This paper presents the development of a micro-computer compatible hydrological simulation model wherein an attempt has been made to satisfy some of the modelling needs in South Africa....

Assessment of Water-Shortage Risks Under Various Use Options for Cedar Bluff Reservoir
Cedar Bluff Reservoir is located on the Smoky Hill River near Arnold, Kansas, with a drainage area of 5,530 mi**2. The reservoir was originally built for flood control, irrigation and...

Computer Simulation of Coagulation
Coagulation, the process of collision and coalescence of particles, modifies the size distribution of the suspended mass, continuously creating larger particles which may settle out of...

Ground Water Management Using Computers
Both a mainframe and personal computers are used by the Water Use Division of the South Florida Water Management District in the consumptive water use permitting process. Numerical and...

Lessons Learned from First Impulse Turbine Installation in the U.S. Mining Industry
The paper discusses a research study to recover energy from service or cooling water brought into deep mines. The test site was the Luck Friday Mine, owned and operated by the Hecla Mining...

Microcomputer Control for a Small Hydroelectric Peaking Plant
Peaking plants pose a special problem for control. The new facilities are generally a very small part of a large system. Determination of the parameters necessary to run the plant to best...

Statewide Hydrologic Data Base and Analysis System
The Wyoming Water Research Center (WWRC) at the University of Wyoming has developed, in cooperation with the Wyoming State Engineer's Office, a statewide Water Resources Data System (WRDS)...

Input/Output Schemes for Microconverted Engineering Application Programs
When converting mainframe programs for microcomputer use, different input/output schemes are implemented depending on the type and volume of program data and ultimate use of the program....

Sedimentation of Waste Particles in Coastal Waters
Environmental effects associated with various ocean disposal practices are determined to a large extent by the fate of waste particles. The importance of coagulation on particle deposition...
