Abstract:
Municipal water and wastewater systems in Virginia are faced with substantial capital needs for the expansion, replacement, and improvement of existing facilities, and the construction of new facilities. To compound this problem, the financial environment surrounding these utilities is changing from one in which grant financing is being replaced by debt financing, and the overall availability of federal and state aid is declining. The literature on utility management emphasizes the use of a "user-pays" approach that makes use of a comprehensive method of cost analysis. This thesis tests the

Odorous gases such as hydrogen sulfide have long been associated with wastewater treatment plants, especially those with long forced mains which allow septic conditions to develop. With the encroachment of urban and suburban populations, many wastewater treatment plants are no longer located far enough from residential areas to prevent odor problems. This has lead to renewed efforts to develop odor control techniques.
