Guidelines for Marine Outfalls and Alternative Disposal and Reuse Options
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This EA Sourcebook Update focuses on assessing the potential environmental impacts of proposed sewage outfalls on coastal waters and estuaries. It is intended to assist those involved in managing coastal wastewater discharges and planning appropriate levels of pollution control. It complements Environmental Sourcebook Updates nos. 2, 7 and 10 concerned respectively with environmental screening, coastal zone management and international environmental agreements. This Update is not a design manual, nor is it a definitive statement on the international or regional agreements governing discharges to the oceans. It expands on pp. 231-236, Vol. II, of the EA Sourcebook.

متن کاملOcean outfalls as an alternative to minimizing risks to human and environmental health.
Submarine outfalls are proposed as an efficient alternative for the final destination of wastewater in densely populated coastal areas, due to the high dispersal capacity and the clearance of organic matter in the marine environment, and because they require small areas for implementation. This paper evaluates the probability of unsuitable bathing conditions in coastal areas nearby to the Ipane...
