Abstract |
The report covers the work performed on the collection, storage, treatment, and reuse of storm water as a means of pollution control and water supply augmentation. A discussion is presented of the work performed in the analysis and optimization of the system; the conceptual designs of potable, sub-potable, and pollution control systems; the conceptual design of a system for controlling pollution using a 'conventional design' approach, the results of the system evaluation and plans for the demonstration of the local storage, treatment, and reuse of storm water. The appendices to this report include the derivations of the hydrology equations, survey reports on water usage and the public acceptance and legal aspects of reuse, design reports on the 'conventional' and demonstration system, detailed estimates on the cost of the demonstration program, and descriptive information on packaged water treatment plants.
