Prospects for Managed Underground Storage of Recoverable Water (Water Infrastructure) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The National Research Council of the National Academies has commissioned this book on strategies for managing water supplies, emphasizing technologies which use underground storage to maintain these resources through the seasons. This book outlines the problems experienced with traditional surface water supplies such as reservoirs, noting how underground storage tanks are less susceptible to evaporation, contamination, land consumption and other ecological factors. Written for policymakers and water managers, this book also describes new measures for water quality, hydrogeological considerations and the legal considerations involved with building these types of projects.
