Close to one-half of all Americans live in coastal counties. The resulting flood of wastewater, stormwater, and pollutants discharged into coastal waters is a major concern. This book offers a well-delineated approach to integrated coastal management beginning with wastewater and stormwater control. The committee presents an overview of current management practices and problems. The core of the volume is a detailed model for integrated coastal management, offering basic principles and methods, a direction for moving from general concerns to day-to-day activities, specific steps from goal setting through monitoring performance, and a base of scientific and technical information. Success stories from the Chesapeake and Santa Monica bays are included. The volume discusses potential barriers to integrated coastal management and how they may be overcome and suggests steps for introducing this concept into current programs and legislation. This practical volume will be important to anyone concerned about management of coastal waters: policymakers, resource and municipal managers, environmental professionals, concerned community groups, and researchers, as well as faculty and students in environmental studies.

This manual presents information on wastewater management practices for coastal cities and the options available for protecting the coastal environment. It reviews the current state of knowledge on the planning, design and construction of ocean outfalls for ultimate disposal in the marine environment. The scope of the manual includes the scientific basis for understanding what happens to wastes discharged into the nearshore marine environment and the implications for appropriate ecological design. It also covers the engineering framework for outfall planning and site selection, hydraulic design of outfall pipelines and diffusers, selection of pipeline material, analysis of on-bottom stability and stresses on pipelines, and determination of shore approaches. Other topics include corrosion control; state of the art in marine outfall construction, trenching, back filling; and construction monitoring and inspection. Finally, consideration is given to performance monitoring for ocean outfalls. The report rounds out the presentation of scientific and technological information with a series of case studies from both developed and developing countries which illustrate the application of these principles under a variety of oceanographic, ecological and socieconomic conditions.

Protection of coastal waters from direct pollution by coastal cities is a vital task in preserving marine ecosystems and promoting human health. This book, edited by two leading experts on wastewater management for coastal cities, delves deeply into the ecological and oceanographic fundamentals that are essential for understanding of what happens to wastes discharged into the nearshore marine environment. It explains the requirements for rational engineering design and operation of the physical and institutional components of coastal city wastewater management, and it provides guidelines for hydraulic design, ocean outfall construction, monitoring, cost recovery, and other economic aspects. Case studies are included, drawn from the editors' worldwide field experience.

Excreta and wastewater sludge are resources. Finding ways to put them to their best uses is part of developing sustainable human communities. But if not managed properly, excreta and sludge can be dangerous to human health and the environment. How to integrate theses opposing concepts is an ongoing worldwide challenge. This Atlas provides examples of how this challenge is addressed around the globe. The 59 reports provide insights into the similarities and differences in the management of excreta, wastewater, and biosolids in 37 countries. This compilation of information includes specific information from 19% of the member states of the United Nations, and includes representation of diverse countries and the full spectrum of management programs.
