Book excerpt: The objective of this study was "to demonstrate the effectiveness of a vegetative filter zone in trapping fine-grained sediments from surface mining operations." The area selected for study was located in Whitley County, Kentucky, directly below an active surface mining operation. The out-slope above the filter was the primary drainage area monitored during this study. This project was initiated for the specific purpose of conducting a field test on vegetation as a viable sediment trapping medium. From the onset, the project was wholly designed for a field evaluation under typical mining conditions. The filter area was constructed directly below an abandoned surface mine bench, on typical soil types found in mined areas of Eastern Kentucky. The outslope located above the filter was the primary area, from which sediment-laden drainage was to be diverted to the inlet monitoring station. Sediment-laden water samples were collected at the inlet flume for comparison with samples collected at the outlet flume to permit evaluation of the sediment removal capability of the vegetative filter. Results of the monitoring effects revealed that a dramatic reduction in sediment load was achieved by vegetative filtration for particle sizes larger than clay. Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that vegetative filters are an effective control for reducing the quantity of sediment transported into surface streams and rivers from disturbed mined lands.

Download or read book Design Hydrology and Sedimentology for Small Catchments written by C. T. Haan and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1994-08-17 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Water Act, with its emphasis on storm water and sediment control in urban areas, has created a compelling need for information in small-catchment hydrology. Design Hydrology and Sedimentology for Small Catchments provides the basic information and techniques required for understanding and implementing design systems to control runoff, erosion, and sedimentation. It will be especially useful to those involved in urban and industrial planning anddevelopment, surface mining activities, storm water management, sediment control, and environmental management.This class-tested text, which presents many solved problems throughout as well as solutions at the end of each chapter, is suitable for undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education courses. In addition, practicing professionals will find it a valuable reference.Anderson/Woessner: APPLIED GROUNDWATER MODELING (1992)Shuirman/Slosson: FORENSIC ENGINEERING (1992)de Marsily: QUANTITATIVE HYDROGEOLOGY (1986)Selley: APPLIED SEDIMENTOLOGY, THIRD EDITION (1988)Huyakorn: COMPUTATIONAL METHODS IN SUBSURFACE FLOW (1986)Pinder: FINITE ELEMENT MODELING IN SURFACE AND SUBSURFACE HYDROLOGY (1977)Key Features* Covers major new improvements and state-of-the-art technologies in sediment control technology* Provides in-depth information on estimating the impact of land-use changes on runoff and flood flows, as well as on estimating erosion and sediment yield from small catchments* Presents superior coverage on design of flood and sediment detention ponds and design of runoff and sediment control measures
