Available from NTIS or limited supply available from WOM Information
Center.
Emphasis of this land-use/water quality study Is on urban and
urbanization areas and In particular the possible effects from
new development. The report provides formulas and a rationale
for calculating pollutant runoff by land use cateqory. It also
provides adjustments to the Universal Soil Loss Equation as
dictated by on~slte observations. The methodoloqy of the report
provides a practical way of estimating pollutant loadlnq as
applied to the Wessahlckon watershed (Philadelphia, PA). The
basis for the pollution loadlnq Is a simplified, mass balanced
calculation that does not require extensive data. Application
and basic calibration of the formula culminated In the Identi-
fication of best land management practices to abate polluting
Influxes of some runoff from disturbed and developed lands.

A methodology Is developed to use snace-tlme analysis and ecosystems
modeilnq to assess the secondary Imoacts of wastewater treatment fac-
ilities (I.e., urbanization) on the ecosystem. The existing state
of the ecosystem Is described with emphasis on the dynamic, periodic
trend, and gradient processes. Ecosystem models are used to project
each facility alternative and its conseauences. Ecosystem models
are described and the literature on Impacts Is reviewed. A case study
of urbanization at Lake George, NY emphasizes the usefulness of the
components of ecosystem models by linking units from several studies
with a new model (LAND).

December 1974.Available from NTIS PB 740-987/8BE. Price: $8.00.
Urban land runoff from a 1.67 sauare-mlle urban watershed In Durham,
North Carolina, was characterized with respect to annual pollutant
yield. Regression equations were developed to relate pollutant
strenqth to hydrograph characteristics. Urban land runoff was
found to be a slqnlfleant source of pollution when compared to the
raw municipal waste qenerated with the study area. On an annual
basis, the urban runoff suspended solids yield was 20 times that
contained In raw municipal wastes for the same area. Downstream
water quality was judqed to be controlled by urban land runoff 2Q1?
of the time. In urban dralnaqe basins, Investments In upqradlnq
secondary munlcloal waste treatment plants with concomitant steps
to moderate the adverse effects of urban land runoff are questionable
In view of the aooarent relative Impact of urban land runoff on
recelvlnq water Quality.

The biological and chemical effects of three types of log storage
on water oual !+v were Investigated. Three flow-though log oonds,
two wet deck operations and five log rafting areas were studied.
°-oth biological and chemical aspects of stream Quality can be
adverselv affected bv f low-through log nonds and runoff fro^ wet
decks. Severity of degradation varies widely with each situation.
Runoff from wet decks has Pollution characteristics equal to or greater

The paper briefly describes a linear model designed to allow
the exploration of guestlons surrounding the management of the
environmental Impacts of the Integrated Iron and steel facilities.
In particular, the model can show how plan discharges, with such
variables as product mix, steel-furnace type, casting technology,
and the scrap-ore price ratio. In addition, the costs Implied by
placing restrictions on discharges of specific residuals (e.g.,
BOn, oil, suspended solids, partlculates) may be estimated or
response to proposed effluent charges may be predicted. Models
of this tvoe can play a significant role as components of larger
regional analyses.

Press. 1976, $*5.75/coDy.
The proceeding of a joint WHO-RfF conference held In Rotterdam In
1974 on modeling for regional residuals-environmental guallty
mananement (RREOM) from the standpoint of generating Information
needed for management decisions. Papers outline the basic concepts
of RREOM and present case studies, applying the concepts, In the
Lower Delaware Valley, the Upper Colorado River Basin, Ljubljana
(Yugoslavia), and Ostrava (Czechoslovakia).

The use of guantl+atl ve, comprehensive regional environmental
Quality model — the RfE Lower Delaware Valley model — In the context
of EPA's regional programs, such as 20B and Air Quality Maintenance,
Is examined. The generation of data on the Interrelationships of
the three forms of pollutants — gaseous, solid and liquid — and the
three environmental media — air, land and water — as well as the
associated management costs of alternative strategies are
highlighted.

The paper describes planning and analysis as but one of five links
In a chain composing the total Regional Environmental Quality
Management process of nroblem perception, analysis, legislation/
regulation, Imp lementatlon/enforcement/monltor Ing and feedback.
Criteria for the design of regional REOM modeling efforts are
developed with emphasis on the sensitivity of the data and
submodels used, relative +o the strategies developed.

A linear programming model of the petroleum refining Industry
Is developed which Incorporates the full ranges of technological
and cost considerations of various sets of residuals discharge
res+rlc+tons, Models of this type can play a significant role
as components of larger regional analyses.

This manual presents a methodology for the preliminary screening
of surface water guallty applicable tor use by nondeslqnated 208
planning anencles. The ">a jor emphasis Is on procedures and
methodologies for the assessment on nonurban pollutant loads and
their Impacts of receiving waters. The analyses are designed to
be performed with, at most, the assistance of a desk top calcu-
lator and with a minima! amount of data Input.
