Water Pollution In Depth : Report Stormwater Strategies Community Responses to Runoff Pollution This May 1999 report from the Natural Resources Defense Council documents some of the most effective strategies being employed by communities around the country to control urban runoff pollution, which is among the top sources of water contamination in the country today. The collection of 100 case studies compiled and evaluated here is intended to serve as a guide for local decisionmakers, municipal officials, and environmental activists; it is also a resource for citizens concerned about the quality of their local environment. Added in October 2001 is a new chapter on low-impact development, which has emerged as a simple, effective and economical stormwater strategy that also carries a broader aesthetic appeal.

More than one third of all waterways are reported to be unsuitable for fishing or swimming because of pollution. Most contaminants are sewage and bacteria, fertilizer, toxic metals, oil and grease. http://www.all-natural.com/water.html

The Hidden Dangers of Water An EPA report on the status of the nation's lakes, rivers, and estuaries says that while water quality is not getting worse in America, neither is any progress being made. More than one third of all waterways are reported to be unsuitable for fishing or swimming because of pollution. Most contaminants are sewage and bacteria, fertilizer, toxic metals, oil and grease. Typical sources of the pollution include runoff from farms, industrial waste, and city sewer discharge. Newsweek : "Several million Americans are drinking water that is potentially hazardous due to chemical or bacterial contamination." L.A. Times : "Communities with drinking water contamination by chemicals are being hit with strange patterns of illness." ABC Network News : "U.S. Industries...generate some 88,000,000 pounds of toxic wastes a year, 90 percent of which, the E.PA. estimates, are improperly disposed." The New York Times, June 2, 1995: "More than 1 in 5 Americans unknowingly drink tap water polluted with feces, radiation or other contaminants...Nearly 1,000 deaths each year and at least 400,000 cases of waterborne illness may be attributed to contaminated water. .

The Section’s programming is intended to contribute to the education and professional development of our members, and there is no doubt in my mind that it did just that. From the audio+webcasts and the monthly luncheons to the half-day workshops, every program event provided an opportunity to learn and grow. In addition, some were downright entertaining. May’s luncheon is a case in point. At the beginning of his talk, Chuck Duritsa, Director of DEP’s Southwest Regional Office, advised that his intent was to entertain rather than to instruct. In fact, he did both.

140. Water Quality Monitoring: Total Phosphate How to test for phosphates in surface water. Discusses the conversion of phosphate pollution to water quality index. http://www.fivecreeks.org/monitor/phosphate.html

Water Quality Monitoring: Total Phosphate Total Phosphate Phosphorus is usually present in natural water as phosphates (orthophospates, polyphosphates, and organically bound phosphates). Phosphorus is a plant nutrient needed for growth and a fundamental element in the metabolic reactions of plants and animals (hence its use in fertilizers). Sources of phosphorus include human and animal wastes (i.e., sewage), industrial wastes, soil erosion, and fertilizers. Excess phosphorus causes extensive algal growth called "blooms," which are a classic symptom of cultural eutrophication and lead to decreased oxygen levels in creek water. Test Equipment Hach Total Phosphate Test Kit (Cat. No. 2250-01) Graduated cylinder and cap for square mixing bottle Alcohol lamp, matches, and tripod Wash bottle containing demineralized water Gloves and goggles Waste container Procedure If turbidity is low (less than 5 jtu), it is possible to skip the total phosphate measurement and proceed directly to orthophosphate, since very little phosphate will be attached to suspended solids in the water. In the summer, when turbidity is often low, algae is prevalent, and the total phosphate measurement will include phosphates bound up in the algae. This phosphate is not available for use by other plants and should not be included in the measurement. The color comparison performed at the end of the procedure can be difficult if the sample water is colored or if the reagents produce a hue that does not closely match the color wheel. Cerrito Creek is often slightly yellow, for example. The treated sample can be compared to one or more of several reference points including distilled water, untreated sample, and reagent blank (i.e., treated distilled water). Please note on the field data sheet which reference point is used and any difficulties in comparison. If comparing to a reagent blank, please also compare the reagent blank to distilled water and record the offset.
