Sediment in urban areas : concerns, sources and controls / by J. Marsalek. : En13-5/90-94E-PDF
"Review of sediment issues in urban areas focuses on concerns about sediment impacts on water resources, sources of sediment and sediment controls. Environmental concerns cover transport and treatment of sewage, and sediment impacts on the receiving waters through transport of phosphorus, biodegradable organic matter, bacteria, hydrocarbons, metals and some organic toxics. Urban sediment originates from two sources - catchment surface and sewage. Sediment controls, including source controls and sediment removal, are briefly discussed. Rational management of sediment is a prerequisite for successful management of urban water quality"--Abstract.
