Manhole Junction Flow
When a sewer surcharges, a basement floods, or sewage overflows, the likeliest source of the problem is sewer junction manholes. Poorly designed ones act as bottlenecks. Study of a few,...
Little River: An Investigation of Coastal Environment
Little River is located about 6. 5 kilometres north of Comox on the east side of Vancouver Island. The last major flood in February of 1983 resulted in the river breaking through the beach...
Mechanics of Embankment Erosion During Overflow

Milwaukee's Deep Tunnels�No Clone
Tunnel boring machines are excavating nearly 19 miles of tunnels 17-32 ft in diameter as part of Milwaukee's $1.9 billion upgrade of its sanitary sewage system. Laid out to...
A Review of Overbank Flow Models
On-Site Microcomputer Control of a Combined Sewer Overflow Diversion Structure
This paper describes the design of an inexpensive system for controlling combined sewer overflows using on-site equipment (raingauges, flow gauges, automatic gates, and microcomputers)....
Inventorying the System/Inspection Introductory Remarks
A major sewer system evaluation survey is nearing completion in the seven communities which make up Special District No. 1 of the East Bay Municipal Utility District. A major effort has...
Eliminating Pollution From Combined Sewer Overflows With Inlet Controls
The problem of contamination of surface waters with storm and sanitary discharges from combined sewer systems has been one of the most difficult problems confronting environmental engineers,...
Los Angeles Infiltration/Inflow Reduction Program
The City of Los Angeles maintains and operates two wastewater collection and treatment systems: the Hyperion System and the Terminal Island System. During the wet months of December through...
Quali-Continuous Simulation of CSOs
Providence, Rhode Island, has a combined sewer system. During and following a precipitation event the capacity of the system may be exceeded and a mixture of wastewater and urban runoff...
Analyzing Combined Sewer Overflow Events
The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency/Illinois Pollution Control Board (ILEPA/IPCB) direct that combined sewer system overflows (CSO) be given sufficient treatment including 'first...
