Delaware Estuary Nonpoint Source Control Program
Preparation of the Delaware Estuary Management Plan, sponsored by the EPA and the three states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware, is part of the national estuaries program. As part...
Statistical Analysis of Wastewater Flow Reduction
Changes in urban water use patterns can significantly impact wastewater flow characteristics. With the increased emphasis on water conservation programs, understanding these impacts is...
Reservoir Water Quality Modeling in Northern Portugal?Some Case Studies
In the last two decades environmental problems have become a major concern in Portugal as the effects of water pollution have gradually impaired the quality of water resources. Mathematical...
Use of Contaminant Mobility and Transport Parameters to Determine Water Testing Protocol
By 1994, EPA plans to regulate 83 contaminants in public water supplies. For rural communities and individuals who are not classified as public systems, the cost to monitor all 83 contaminants...
Statewide NPS Management Strategies
Statewide nonpoint source (NPS) management strategies are necessary because there are several different levels of authority involved, and the priority of action needs to be related to...

Water Quality and Hydrologic Characteristics of a Wet Detention Pond
A small wet detention pond was instrumented to determine treatment efficiencies. Annual loads showed a reduction from the inflow to the outflow for ammonia as nitrogen (39%), organic nitrogen...
The Potential Fate of Particulate Contaminants from the Rehabilitated Ranger Uranium Mine
In the initial period after rehabilitation of the Ranger Uranium Mine most particulate matter released into Magela Creek will be wash load. 10% of the annual deposits on the backwater...
Infrared Thermographic Sensing of Sewer Pipeline Problems
When a sewer caves in, it often takes the street, sidewalks, and surrounding buildings along for the ride. These collapses endanger public health and safety. Repairing a sewer before such...
Principles of Infrared Thermography and Application for Assessment of the Deterioration of the Bridge Deck at the Zoo Interchange
This paper details the principles of infrared thermography from the underlying theoretical considerations to the physical constraints involved with performing the test. Infrared (IR) thermography...
Aerogel?A Transparent, Porous Superinsulator
Silica aerogel is an unusual, transparent, low density, thermally insulating solid useful for a variety of applications. We have been investigating silica aerogel for use in transparent...
Estuarine and Coastal Modeling
This is the proceedings of the second ASCE specialty conference on Estuarine and Coastal Modeling devoted to the rapidly evolving field of marine environmental modeling. The primary focus...

Dual-System Cleanup
Engineers designing a ground water treatment system for a manufacturing plant in northern California, found that two systems are better�and cheaper�than one. Most of the ground water at...
The Desalination Situation
Rapid growth is putting increasing pressure on water supplies in coastal communities. Conservation can only do so much, and providing new freshwater supplies is getting more expensive...
Migration of Spilled Oil from Ruptured Underground Crude Oil Pipelines in the Memphis Area
This study evaluated the impact of an oil pipeline rupture in the recharge area of a West Tennessee aquifer. Two potential break locations were chosen in the alluvial valley of a main...
