The attenuation of a diverse suite of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) and bulk water quality changes was evaluated at a surface-spreading aquifer recharge operation across a detailed subsurface profile (9 locations), representing both short- and long-travel times (10 h to 60 days). Seventeen CECs were detected in the recharge basin and the concentrations of all were reduced during soil aquifer treatment (SAT), with 11 of the target compounds attenuated by > 80% after 60 days of travel time. Select CECs (atenolol, gemfibrozil, N,N-diethly-3-methylbenzamide, meprobamate, tris(2-chloroethyl)phosphate, and primidone) and bulk water organic-carbon measurements (total organic carbon, biodegradable organic carbon,...
It is widel_v recognized that linear utilities such as overhead electricity transmission lines have a significant effect on the visual environment. Assessment of aesthetic values along the entire length of a utility corridor is often impractical. The large area ofpotential impact increases problems of inconsistency and nonrepeatability. This paper presents an approach to automated mapping of the visual impacts in utility corridors. Using transmission lines as an example, the system takes account of complex relationships between the transmission structures, the environment and the observer. With further testing and calibration of these relationships the system will be capable of application on a routine basis.
