Wastewater Engineering and Management Plan for Boston Harbor - Eastern Massachusetts Metropolitan Area EMMA Study. Technical Data Volume 13C. Hygienic Impact Analysis.

Abstract

The BH-EMMA Study Area, encompassing 109 communities within a 30 mile radius of the city of Boston contains 1760 square miles of land, and a population of over 3 million. Forty three of these communities are currently members of the MDC Metropolitan Sewerage District. A large portion of these 109 communities lie within the following regions: Boston Harbor, Mystic River Watershed, Neponset River Watershed, Charles River Watershed, Ipswich River-North Coastal, North River-South Coastal, Sudbury, Assabet and Concord Watersheds. The intent of this report is to determine the potential beneficial, neutral and adverse impacts which the implementation of each alternative concept for wastewater management may have on the public health of the study area.
