Book Synopsis Watershed Management for Potable Water Supply by : National Research Council
Download or read book Watershed Management for Potable Water Supply written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-02-17 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1997, New York City adopted a mammoth watershed agreement to protect its drinking water and avoid filtration of its large upstate surface water supply. Shortly thereafter, the NRC began an analysis of the agreement's scientific validity. The resulting book finds New York City's watershed agreement to be a good template for proactive watershed management that, if properly implemented, will maintain high water quality. However, it cautions that the agreement is not a guarantee of permanent filtration avoidance because of changing regulations, uncertainties regarding pollution sources, advances in treatment technologies, and natural variations in watershed conditions. The book recommends that New York City place its highest priority on pathogenic microorganisms in the watershed and direct its resources toward improving methods for detecting pathogens, understanding pathogen transport and fate, and demonstrating that best management practices will remove pathogens. Other recommendations, which are broadly applicable to surface water supplies across the country, target buffer zones, stormwater management, water quality monitoring, and effluent trading.

Book Synopsis Erosion Control Practices in Managed Forested Watersheds by : Kevin Charles Bold
Download or read book Erosion Control Practices in Managed Forested Watersheds written by Kevin Charles Bold and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Water Act mandates the implementation of approved best management practices (BMPs) in all states to control non point source pollution. Water control and revegetation BMPs are commonly used to control erosion and sedimentation from forest roads. The main objective of this study was to assess the adequacy of broad-based dip construction and vegetation establishment. In 2006, 19 gravel haul roads with broad-based dips in the Monongahela National Forest, West Virginia were examined to determine if they adhered to Forest specifications for cut depth and dip outslope. Data on the azimuth, contributing road lengths, slopes of the contributing lengths, landscape position of the dips, wheel track depths and soil texture of the road bed materials also were recorded to identify variables that explained variation in cut depth and dip outslope. Only about 22 percent of the dips met allowable cut depth specifications, and just over half of the dip slopes met the 2-5 percent outslope specifications. Cut depth was explained primarily by road geometry variables, suggesting that proper construction is important to ensure the dip impedes longitudinal drainage down the road while remaining traversable. Dip slope was affected by environmental and use variables, so maintenance during and following use is critical to ensure proper short- and long-term drainage. Vegetative growth along the entire cutbank of Forest Service road 973 within a managed watershed in the Left Fork of Clover Run on the Cheat District of the Monongahela National Forest in Tucker County, West Virginia was monitored from 2004 through 2006 using photograph analysis. Four sets of photographs were taken over the three years, two of which were taken in 2005 before and after timber harvesting. Percent vegetation establishment along the cutbank for each year was calculated to determine if there were significant differences in vegetative cover over time. Aspect and cutbank slope also were examined to determine if they influenced vegetation establishment. Cutbank slope was not a significant variable, but aspect was. South-facing aspects had significantly less vegetative cover than NE-, E-, WNW-, and NW-aspects. Timber felled onto the cutbank and poor initial seed establishment had a significant effect on vegetation establishment. Trees felled onto the cutbank and road can be deleterious to established vegetation, thus, trees slated for harvest that could impact the road prism should be removed before seeding, or directionally felled away from the road prism. Additionally, if vegetation on cutbanks is not established, soil should be mulched and vegetation coverage should be monitored.
Book Synopsis The Triazine Herbicides by : Janis Mc Farland Ph.D.
Download or read book The Triazine Herbicides written by Janis Mc Farland Ph.D. and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-08-19 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past 50 years, triazines have made a great impact on agriculture and world hunger by assisting in the development of new farming methods, providing greater farming and land use capabilities, and increasing crop yields. Triazines are registered in over 80 countries and save billions of dollars a year. The Triazine Herbicides is the one book that presents a comprehensive view of the total science and agriculture of these chemicals. With emphasis on how the chemicals are studied and developed, reviewed, and used at the agricultural level this book provides valuable insight into the benefits of triazine herbicides for sustainable agriculture. Presents previously unpublished information on the discovery, development and marketing of herbicides Includes a vital section on the origin, use, economics and fate of triazine herbicides Covers benefits of triazines in corn and sorghum, sugarcane, citrus, fruit and nut crops Establishes best management practice and environmental benefits of use in conservation tillage
