Urban Runoff Pollution

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIG,volume 10))

Abstract

Over the last few decades, water pollution abatement programs have been responsible for significant and sometimes dramatic improvements in the water quality of many receiving water bodies. However, as point sources of pollution are being eliminated through attainment of secondary and sometimes tertiary treatment of municipal and industrial wastewaters, other less apparent sources of pollution are becoming increasingly threatening to many beneficial water uses.
