Abstract
The report has been prepared at the request of the District Engineer, Corps of Engineers, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Essentially, it is a re-evaluation of a previous report 'Effects on Water Quality of Proposed Mahoning-Grand River Diversion' prepared by the Public Health Service in December 1949. With respect to the requirements for organic pollution abatement, however, this whole problem has been restudied, using data obtained by the Ohio State Department of Health in a comprehensive stream sanitation study of the Mahoning River Basin extending over a period of several months (May to November, inclusive) in 1952. In addition, consideration has been given to reduction in industrial organic pollution which will result from waste treatment or plant process changes initiated primarily for the control of other types of pollution, such as suspended and floating solids and taste and odor producing substances.
