Wet-Weather Flow in the Urban Watershed

the long version

According to the National Resources Defense Council, throughout the United States stormwater runoff rivals or exceeds discharges form factories and sewage plants as a source of pollution. The U.S. EPA identifies urban stormwaters as the second largest source of water quality damage in estuaries and a significant contributor to the damage to lakes, rivers, and bays. Based on seminars presented by international experts for the EPA, Wet-Weather Flow in the Urban Watershed: Technology and Management covers a broad spectrum of urban wet-weather flow management and pollution abatement topics. The topics covered will assist municipal engineers, consultants, and academic researchers with design, cost, and water quality issues.
