U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Cleveland-Akron Three Rivers Watershed Wastewater Management Survey Scope Study.

Abstract

The Wastewater Management Survey Scope Study for the Cleveland-Akron Metropolitan and Three Rivers Watershed Area was undertaken to identify and recommend one or more regional wastewater management systems capable of achieving the water quality goal intended by the Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972, commonly termed the Clean Water Bill. This national goal has been interpreted in a set of specific effluent criteria to be met by 1985. The present study shows the national goal and the proposed date of compliance to be a feasible objective for the Study Area with present wastewater treatment technology. The results of the Cleveland Area Survey Scope Study will help to define the various regional and national impacts of the Clean Water Bill. Section II discusses wastewater management systems, goals and criteria in more detail.
