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

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 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

Consequently, their achievements were limited.

One of the most important causes for poor water quality in urban rivers in Brazil is the low collection efficiency of the sewer system due to unforeseen interconnections with the stormwater drainage system. Since the beginning of the 20th century, Brazilian cities have adopted separate systems for sanitary sewers and stormwater runoff. Gradually these two systems became interconnected. A major challenge faced today by water managers in Brazil is to find efficient and low cost solutions to deal with this mixed system.
