Book excerpt: The NTBS was designed to address the ecological concerns about pulp mill expansion, and to increase scientific knowledge about environmental conditions [ecology, ecosystem sustainability, water pollution and control, habitat, effect on fish and fishing, etc.] in the major river systems of the north. The study's objectives were to gather and interpret sound scientific information about the basins, develop appropriate recommendations for basin management, and communicate effectively with the public. The government response report confirms the governments' commitment to ecosystem sustainability and to pollution control in northern rivers. First Nations and Metis aboriginal [native] peoples contributed significantly to the NRBS.

Reviews the characteristics of the northern river basins and their peoples, the organisation of the Study, and major findings in the areas of environmental overview, use of aquatic resources, traditional knowledge, flow regulation, fish distribution and habitat, nutrients, dissolved oxygen, contaminants, drinking water, ecosystem health, modelling, human health, and cumulative effects. Recommendations by the Study Board, First Nations, and scientific advisors regarding such issues as basin management, monitoring, research, public participation, and a successor organisation are then presented. Also includes a summary of opinions, suggestions, and recommendations expressed at 17 community workshops held throughout the northern river basins area.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assesses the utilization and quality of the different non- conventional sources of drinking water used by people in the Northern River Basins Study area. Such sources include rain water, melted snow or ice, untreated surface water, dugout water, groundwater, bottled water, and water treated by various point-of-use technologies. The assessment included a literature review on non-conventional drinking water sources, drinking water quality, and the correlation between drinking water and health; interviews with area residents on their non-conventional drinking water practices; collection of field samples of non-conventional drinking water and analysis of samples for various physical, chemical, and microbiological parameters; and research on the effectiveness of some of the portable point-of-use drinking water treatment filters on the market.

Book excerpt: This report summarizes the results of a project conducted to gather existing information about drinking water quality, drinking water facilities, and water treatment effectiveness in the area covered by the Northern River Basins Study (Peace, Slave, and Athabasca River basins in northern Alberta). The report includes a comparison of water treatment performance to the Canada Drinking Water Quality Guidelines. The appendices contain summaries of parameters in the treated water survey, of the comparisons between raw and treated water, and of samples not meeting the Guidelines, as well as an inventory of treatment facilities giving facility name and location, water source, community population, treatment method used, raw storage capacity, and treated volumes.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the various water treatment technologies available to remove micro-organisms from raw water supplies. Discussions of each technology includes a process overview, performance information, design considerations, operating and maintenance aspects, and notes on costs and status of technology development. In addition, the impacts of important micro-organisms and relevant regulations are examined to highlight the significance and requirements of removing micro-organisms from water treatment processes. Specific consideration is made regarding those technologies suitable for small community systems located in the Northern River Basins Study area. Types of technologies examined include pre-filtration processes such as coagulation and sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection. Three types of package plants (conventional, tube-type clarification, and adsorption clarifier) suitable for small communities are also reviewed.

This book was released on 2009-10-25 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the human population grows-tripling in the past century while, simultaneously, quadrupling its demand for water-Earth's finite freshwater supplies are increasingly strained, and also increasingly contaminated by domestic, agricultural, and industrial wastes. Today, approximately one-third of the world's population lives in areas with scarce water resources. Nearly one billion people currently lack access to an adequate water supply, and more than twice as many lack access to basic sanitation services. It is projected that by 2025 water scarcity will affect nearly two-thirds of all people on the planet. Recognizing that water availability, water quality, and sanitation are fundamental issues underlying infectious disease emergence and spread, the Institute of Medicine held a two-day public workshop, summarized in this volume. Through invited presentations and discussions, participants explored global and local connections between water, sanitation, and health; the spectrum of water-related disease transmission processes as they inform intervention design; lessons learned from water-related disease outbreaks; vulnerabilities in water and sanitation infrastructure in both industrialized and developing countries; and opportunities to improve water and sanitation infrastructure so as to reduce the risk of water-related infectious disease.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual provides guidance to water utilities and public health agencies, showing how to set up locally responsive water surveillance programs. It examines two major settings which surveillance must address and their appropriate responses: variations occurring in plant operation or distribution systems, and the detection of disease in the community. A proactive approach is described, involving watershed monitoring, record maintenance, and planning for emergencies. Material on public health recommends augmenting laboratory-based notifiable disease surveillance and creating or improving an emergency room-based sentinel system. A communications and action plan in case of outbreak is outlined. Emde is affiliated with the Northern Alberta Provincial Laboratory of Public Health, Canada. This work lacks a subject index. c.

The review considers inorganic chemical parameters that include arsenic, barium, boron, cadmium, chloride, chromium, copper, cyanide, fluoride, iron, lead, manganese, mercury, nitrate, selenium, sodium, sulphide, total dissolved solids, uranium, and zinc. Sources of inorganic chemicals include industrial and municipal effluent, agricultural runoff, and natural sources. Both conventional and advance treatment processes are noted to give an idea of how each contaminant could be removed. These processes include coagulation, softening, filtration, oxidation, adsorption, ion exchange, distillation, membrane processes, aeration, and dilution.
