This book was released on 1996 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synthesis report first presents an overview of the context shaping the various measures taken by the government to protect Quebec's waterways. The problems at issue in assessing the toxic substances in effluents from these industrial plants are described next, followed by the methodology selected and the Chimiotox Index, an index developed to solve the problem of combining loadings of the toxic substances characterized. Methods of monitoring effluent quality are then defined. Lastly, the main accomplishments and cleanup measures, along with the discharge reduction results obtained from 1988 to 1995, as determined by the Chimiotox index and by monitoring parameters, are presented for all 50 Action Plan priority industrial plants.

Download or read book Water Resources of North America written by Asit K. Biswas and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-17 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leonardo da Vinci, the eminent Renaissance scholar and philosopher said, "water is the driver of nature". Many may have considered it to be an overstatement in the past, but at the beginning of the third millennium, no sane individual would disagree with Leonardo's view. Water is becoming an increasingly scarce resource for most of the world's citizens. The current trends indicate that the overall situation is likely to deteriorate further, at least for the next two decades, unless the water profession eschews its existing "business as usual" practices, which can only allow incremental changes to occur. Somewhat surprisingly, the water profession as a whole neither realised nor appreciated the gravity of the global water situation as late as 1990, even though a few serious scholars have been pointing out the increasing criticality of the situation from around 1982. For example, the seriousness of the crisis was not a major issue, either at the International Conference on W ater and the Environment, which was organised by the UN system in Dublin and also at the UN Conference on Environment and Development at Rio de Janeiro. Held in 1992, both are considered to be important events for the water sector of the past decade. It is now being increasingly recognised that the Dublin Conference was poorly planned and organised, and thus not surprisingly it produced very little, if any, worthwhile and lasting results.

Download or read book Evolution of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement written by Lee Botts and published by Dave Dempsey Environmental. This book was released on 2005 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water quality concerns are not new to the Great Lakes. They emerged early in the 20th century, in 1909, and matured in 1972 and 1978. They remain a prominent part of today's conflicted politics and advancing industrial growth. The Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, under the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909, became a model to the world for environmental management across an international boundary. Evolution of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement recounts this historic binational relationship, an agreement intended to protect the fragile Great Lakes. One strength of the agreement is its flexibility, which includes a requirement for periodic review that allows modification as problems are solved, conditions change, or scientific research reveals new problems. The first progress was made in the 1970s in the area of eutrophication, the process by which lakes gradually age, which normally takes thousands of years to progress, but is accelerated by modern water pollution. The binational agreement led to the successful lowering of phosphorus levels that saved Lake Erie and prevented accelerated eutrophication in the rest of the Great Lakes ecosystem. Another major success at the time was the identification and lowering of the levels of toxic contaminants that cause major threats to human and wildlife health, from accumulating PCBs and other persistent organic pollutants
