Book excerpt: Presents results of an intensive water sampling and mathematical modelling study on the Humber River, the Don River, Mimico Creek, and other watersheds in the Toronto area. The sampling program focused on the Humber watershed south of Steeles Avenue and was designed to assess net pollutant loadings from selected urban sub-basins. The modelling study used the program HSP-F (Hydrological Simulation Program - FORTRAN) developed by the US Environmental Protection Agency, calibrated for the Humber River using data from 1982 and 1983. Results presented include water quality parameters such as biological oxygen demand, phosphorus, particulates, bacteria, organic compounds, and heavy metals; river discharges; sediment chemistry; and bioaccumulation of pesticides and organic compounds in clam tissue.

Book excerpt: Once a purely technical sub-discipline of hydrology, water quality management is now a social and political discipline, with concerns ranging from ensuring adequate health standards to preserving biological diversity and ecosystem integrity. This book goes beyond the technical manuals and specialty publications to provide support and guidance for the everyday decisions made by water-quality managers. Water Quality: Management of a Natural Resource addresses the rarely touched upon social, biophysical, land-use and policy considerations, which reflect the issues that confront managers and decision-makers. In a series of incisive reviews, experts address key topics in modern water resource management and case studies illustrate the successes and failures of past management efforts. Water Quality: Management of a Natural Resource develops and presents a management view requiring an awareness of: the social context of management, new ecological theories, and how policy is implemented in different situations and countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In most of the developed countries of the,World, significant efforts to control the pollution of surface waters have been underway for decades, and particularly the last 10-15 years. These efforts have focused mainly on eliminating or mitiga ting the effects of point sources of pollution. In many ca ses, however, it is clear that we have achieved only limited improvement in water quality, and that non-point sources of pollution are going to control any further improvement. It has long been known that urban runoff is a major non-point source, and much research has been done in an attempt to un derstand the mechanisms and processes which govern this source and to reduce or eliminate its impacts. Many urban jurisdic tions have adopted urban runoff pollution control measures, in spite of the fact that there is a great deal that we still do not know, and without really being able to quantify the benefits achieved. A major problem is that while a great deal of work is being done, both in Europe and North America, it is very difficult to keep abreast of new developments. The Urban Water Resources Research Council of the American Society of Civil Engineers has for many years had as one of its major objectives the transfer of urban runoff technology among researchers and practitioners in the field, as well as to those engineers who are not in the forefront but who nonetheless need the information on the latest developments.

Possible pollutants were then identified. Includes recommendations for stormwater infiltration guidelines.
