Abstract:

This article explores the statutory limitations faced by the metropolitan commissioners of sewers. It is largely based on an analysis of judicial decisions in cases involving the commissioners and their taxation policy from 1812 to 1845. It argues that the commissioners pursued a potentially radical agenda for sewers financing and taxation, but that their agenda was resisted by ratepayers and thwarted by a generally though not completely hostile judiciary. This article thus contributes to the ongoing revaluation of the metropolitan commissioners of sewers and illustrates the constructed nature

Abstract:

In 1890, the Metropolitan Sanitary District of Greater Chicago was formed to permanently protect the region's drinking water supply from devastating contamination by sewage. The solution was to excavate a massive canal across the continental divide and to thus reverse the flow of the Chicago River, causing it to flow into the tributaries of the Mississippi River and away from Lake Michigan. Later, sewage treatment works were constructed to treat dry weather flows.Each time rainfall exceeds 8.4 mm, the combined sewers' capacities are exceeded, and they discharge directly to the canal system on

Abstract:

Extensive research into sewage purification processes has enabled Johannesburg to produce environmentally high quality effluent from wastewater treatment plants, thus successfully controlling the largest point source contribution to surface water pollution in the Johannesburg metropolitan area. However, a variety of other point and diffuse sources require attention in order to protect the country's single most important resource. Case studies involving pollution from sanitary sewers, zoological gardens, informal settlements and mine dumps are discussed. The effect of more stringent effluent co

Abstract:

Contamination from wastewater infiltration, typically from leaky sewers, poses a threat to urban groundwater resources. Artificial sweeteners (Asws), used as sucrose substitutes in many products of daily consumption, are released into groundwater systems and may be used as tracers of wastewater in urban groundwater environments, because most of these compounds are discharged directly into sewer systems. Here, for the first time, we investigated the occurrence of Asws in an urban groundwater system in Mexico. Artificial sweetener concentrations of acesulfame (ACE), aspartame (ASP), cyclamate (C

Abstract:

Evaluation of the industrial pretreatment plants in Istanbul Metropolitan area is presented. Out of 7899 industries located in Istanbul, 1420 of them require pretreatment to meet the discharge criteria. Currently, there are 532 pretreatment works which treat 82.6 percent of the industrial wastewaters. Discharge standards and the compliance monitoring system for the industrial wastewater discharges into the public sewers as applied by the Istanbul Water and Sewerage Administration are discussed. The performance data of the pretreatment plants are given based on the percent non-compliance and pe

Abstract:

ABSTRACT A spill in a major metropolitan area, although not often considered a significant threat, still requires appropriate planning and response. Currently, most spill planning tends to focus on more rural river and coastal environments. However, lessons learned from a spill in the greater Los Angeles area provide several unique opportunities to improve contingency planning, area plans, and response operations in a very practical sense. In this case, an underground pipeline was punctured by excavation equipment, and the spill entered a 96-inch underground storm sewer and traveled approximat

Abstract:

The South Hartford Conveyance and Storage Tunnel is a major component of Hartford Metropolitan District's Clean Water Project. It is intended to capture and store combined sewer overflows from the southern portion of Hartford, CT, and sanitary sewer overflows from West Hartford and Newington, CT. The project is estimated to cost approximately $US500 M and will be constructed under multiple construction contracts. The project components include a deep rock tunnel 6.6 km long and 7.6 m excavated diameter, several kilometers of consolidation sewers, multiple hydraulic drop shafts with deaeration

Their powers of imprisonment were challenged in the sixteenth century by habeas corpus, sometimes relying on Magna Carta. Shortly after 1600 mandamus was developed as a ‘writ of restitution’ for deprived aldermen and officials, and during the century it enjoyed increasing popularity for v
