Sustainable water management is high on the political agenda. Insufficient access to water resources and insufficient sanitation is one of the world?s major problems. All over the world countries struggle with water stress, not only in arid but also in humid regions. Water issues vary from problems with water scarcity and a degrading quality of surface and groundwater, to problems with floods and a rising sea level due to climate change. The European Union attempts to improve the sustainability of water management in its member states by means of the European Water Framework Directive, adopted

The purpose of the Model Water Code Project of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) was to develop proposed legislation for adoption by state governments for allocating water rights among competing interests and for resolving other qualitative conflicts over water. To this end, input was procured from a variety of people involved with water-related issues, such as engineers, government administrators, lawyers, business people and academics. Due to the continued divergence among the water laws of eastern and western States, the development of a single code appropriate for all the Stat

Provides an introduction to the chemistry of the solid-water interface, progressing from the simple to more complex and applied. Discusses the important interfaces in natural systems, especially geochemistry, in natural waters, soils and sediments. The processes occurring at mineral-water, particle-water and organism-water interfaces play critical roles in regulating the composition and ecology of oceans and fresh waters, the development of soils and plant nutrient’s supply, preserving the integrity of water repositories and in such applications as water technology and corrosion science.

Heterotrophic Plate Counts and Drinking-water Safety provides a critical assessment of the role of the Heterotrophic Plate Count (HPC) measurement in drinking water quality management. It was developed from an Expert workshop of 32 scientists convened by the World Health Organization and the WHO/NSF International Collaborating Centre for Drinking Water Safety and Treatment in Geneva, Switzerland. The workshop sponsors were the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Health Canada, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the American Waterworks Association Research Foundation.

A comprehensive guide to all practical procedures and technical measures required to ensure the safety of drinking-water supplies in small communities and periurban areas of developing countries. Now in its second edition, the book has been vastly expanded in line with broadened appreciation for the many factors that influence water quality and determine its impact on health. Revisions and additions also reflect considerable new knowledge about the specific technical and social interventions that have the greatest chance of success in situations where resources are scarce and logistic problems
