Abstract | The paper presents a study of the Lebanon, Ohio, waste stabilization ponds during each of the four seasons of the year. The objectives of the study were to evaluate waste stabilization pond performance, to determine the fate of pathogenic bacteria in terms of total and fecal coliform and fecal streptococci organisms, and to obtain supporting physical, chemical, and biochemical data. From this study it can be concluded that waste stabilization ponds in this area can effectively treat domestic wastes with a 5-day BOD loading rate of approximately 100 pounds per acre per day, that effective bacterial reductions can be achieved, and that waste stabilization pond effluents can be effectively chlorinated.
