Book Guidance Specifying Management Measures for Sources of Nonpoint Pollution in Coastal Waters

Download or read book Guidance Specifying Management Measures for Sources of Nonpoint Pollution in Coastal Waters written by and published by . This book was released on 2006-02-01 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contains guidance specifying management measures for sources of nonpoint pollution (NP) in coastal waters. NP is the pollution of our nation's waters caused by rainfall or snowmelt moving over & through the ground. As the runoff moves, it picks up & carries away natural & human-caused pollutants, finally depositing them into lakes, rivers, wetlands, coastal waters, & ground waters. This guidance addresses 5 source categories of NP: ag, silviculture, urban, marinas, & hydromodification. A suite of management measures is provided for each source category. Also provides management measures that provides other tools to address non-pollution: protection, restoration, & construction of wetlands, riparian areas, & vegetated treatment systems. Illus.

Book National Management Measures to Control Nonpoint Source Pollution from Marinas and Recreational Boating

Download or read book National Management Measures to Control Nonpoint Source Pollution from Marinas and Recreational Boating written by U. S. Environmental Agency and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This national management measures guidance for marinas and recreational boating provides guidance to states, territories, authorized tribes, and the public regarding management measures that may be used to reduce nonpoint source pollution from marinas and recreational boating activities. The guidance is intended to provide technical assistance to state program managers and others on the best practicable means of reducing nonpoint source pollution of surface waters from marinas and recreational boating. The guidance provides background information about nonpoint source pollution from marinas and recreational boating-including where it comes from and how it enters the nation's waters-and technical information about how to reduce nonpoint source pollution from marinas and recreational boating. It also discusses the relationship of marinas to the watersheds in which they are located. The guidance can assist marina managers in identifying possible sources of nonpoint source pollution and offers potential solutions. Finding a solution to nonpoint source pollution problems at a marina requires taking into account the site-specific factors that together compose the setting of a marina.

Environmental Protection Agency and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was introduced on December 2, 1970 by President Richard Nixon. The agency is charged with protecting human health and the environment, by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress. The EPA's struggle to protect health and the environment is seen through each of its official publications. These publications outline new policies, detail problems with enforcing laws, document the need for new legislation, and describe new tactics to use to solve these issues. This collection of publications ranges from historic documents to reports released in the new millennium, and features works like: Bicycle for a Better Environment, Health Effects of Increasing Sulfur Oxides Emissions Draft, and Women and Environmental Health.

Download or read book Clean Coastal Waters written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-08-17 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental problems in coastal ecosystems can sometimes be attributed to excess nutrients flowing from upstream watersheds into estuarine settings. This nutrient over-enrichment can result in toxic algal blooms, shellfish poisoning, coral reef destruction, and other harmful outcomes. All U.S. coasts show signs of nutrient over-enrichment, and scientists predict worsening problems in the years ahead. Clean Coastal Waters explains technical aspects of nutrient over-enrichment and proposes both immediate local action by coastal managers and a longer-term national strategy incorporating policy design, classification of affected sites, law and regulation, coordination, and communication. Highlighting the Gulf of Mexico's "Dead Zone," the Pfiesteria outbreak in a tributary of Chesapeake Bay, and other cases, the book explains how nutrients work in the environment, why nitrogen is important, how enrichment turns into over-enrichment, and why some environments are especially susceptible. Economic as well as ecological impacts are examined. In addressing abatement strategies, the committee discusses the importance of monitoring sites, developing useful models of over-enrichment, and setting water quality goals. The book also reviews voluntary programs, mandatory controls, tax incentives, and other policy options for reducing the flow of nutrients from agricultural operations and other sources.
