A summary and review of current literature in groundwater contamination relating to stormwater and wastewater contaminants, identifying pollutants and recommending treatment. Pitt (civil and environmental engineering, U. of Alabama) describes the characteristics of urban runoff, the potential groundwater contamination associated with nutrients, pesticides, pathogens, metals, and salts, and relates this information to treatment techniques before stormwater discharge. The appendix includes abstracts from current research. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
Groundwater Contamination from Stormwater Infiltration examines topics such as urban runoff, constituents of concern, treatment, combined sewage characteristics, relative contributions of urban runoff flow phase and more.
