As urban areas keep growing, water infrastructure ages, and the requirements on environmental protection become more rigorous, there is a continual need for upgrading water pollution control facilities and restoring degraded urban waters. Such issues are addressed in this book by focusing on five major topics: (a) Upgrading stormwater management facilities, (b) Retrofitting / upgrading combined sewer overflow (CSO) facilities, (c) Optimising/upgrading sewage treatment plant performance, (d) Urban stream restoration, and (e) Challenges in restoring urban environment. Each chapter contains some overview papers followed by research or case study papers. Besides presentations of new approaches and accomplishments in the field of upgrading and restoration, several papers provide analysis of vast needs in this field in several countries of Central and Eastern Europe, which either recently joined the European Union (EU) or are preparing for accession, and need to comply with the existing EU directives dealing with environmental protection. As such, this book will be of primary interest to researchers and university lecturers dealing with environmental upgrading and restoration, environmental planners from all levels of government, municipal engineers and politicians, and finally the private industry representatives (consultants, private utilities and environmental technology suppliers) searching for new business opportunities among the new or aspiring members of EU.

Proceedings of an Engineering Foundation Conference, held in Snowmass Village, Colorado, August 19-24, 2001. Sponsored by United Engineering Foundation; Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 49 papers discussing the state of the art in urban stormwater management technology. Using a multidisciplinary approach, scientists, researchers, practicing engineers, and administrators detail the linkages between various best management practice (BMP) designs, their performance, and their ability to mitigate the impact of urbanization on receiving waters. Topics include: urban watershed trends; regulatory and institutional perspectives; BMPs and linkages to in-stream integrity; need for and examples of in-stream controls and habitat enhancements; policy issues related to zero and de minims impact development policies; design for sustainable water resources; information and monitoring needs to evaluate impacts mitigating potential of BMPs; and experience and science outside the United States.
