The Law of International Watercourses: The United Nations International Law Commission's Draft Rules on the Non-Navigational Uses of International Watercourses (October 18)

Colloquium organizers, committee members and/or moderators included University of Colorado School of Law professors Daniel Magraw, James N. Corbridge, Jr. and Lawrence J. MacDonnell (Director, Natural Resources Law Center).

The United Nations International Law Commission has drafted new rules on the non-navigational uses of international watercourses. University of Colorado Law Professor Daniel Magraw has organized a colloquium to review these draft rules on October 18, 1991, sponsored jointly by the Panel on State Responsibility of the American Society of International Law, the University of Colorado School of Law, and the International Environmental Law Committee of the ABA's Section of International …

Biodepuration Of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons From A Bivalve Mollusk, Mercenaria Mercenaria L, John T. Tanacredi Ph.D., Raul R. Cardenas

Faculty Works: CERCOM

Mercenaria mercenaria, exposed in vitro for 48 h to nine parent polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) found in waste crankcase oil (WCCO) and analysed by multiparametric analysis over a 45- day depuration period in an activated carbon filtration aquaria system, did not depurate PAHs, but rather maintained them at detectable levels. Uptake of PAHs was shown to be directly related to clam weight. A cluster analysis of empirical results reaffirmed a biostabilization in PAH groupings in clam tissue over a 45-day depuration period and exhibited no evidence of a decreasing trend in total PAHs when subjected to ANOVA. Due to the …

An Introduction To The Research Queueing Package For Modeling Computer Systems And Communication Networks, Robert F. Gordon Ph.D., Edward A. Macnair

Faculty Works: MCS (1984-2023)

A queueing network is an important tool for modeling systems where performance is principally affected by contention for resources. Such systems include computer systems, communication networks and manufacturing lines. In order to effectively use queuing networks as performance models, appropriate software is necessary for definition ofthe networks to be solved, for solution ofthe networks and for examination of the performance measures obtained. The RESearch Queueing Package (RESQ) and the RESearch Queueing Package Modeling Environment (RESQME) form a system for constructing, solving and analyzing extended queueing network models. We refer to the class of RESQ networks as "extended" because of characteristics …

The WSA was studied under section 603 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) and was included in the Grass Creek/Cody Wilderness Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) filed in August 1990. There were two alternatives analyzed in the EIS, No Wilderness and All Wilderness. The All Wilderness Alternative is the recommendation of this report.

Ab Initio Study Of Intermolecular Potential Of H2o Trimer, G. Chalasinski, M. M. Szczesniak, P. Cieplak, Steve Scheiner

Steve Scheiner

Nonadditive contribution to the interaction energy in water trimer is analyzed in terms of Heitler–London exchange, SCF deformation, induction and dispersion nonadditivities. Nonadditivity originates mainly from the SCF deformation effect which is due to electric polarization. However, polarization does not serve as a universal mechanism for nonadditivity in water. In the double‐donor configuration, for example, the Heitler–London exchange contribution is the most important and polarization yields the wrong sign. Correlation effects do not contribute significantly to the nonadditivity. A detailed analysis of the pair potential is also provided. The present two‐body potential and its components are compared to the existing …

Theoretical Vibrational Study Of Fx...Nh3 (X=H, D, Li) Complexes, Y. Bouteiller, Z. Latajka, H. Ratajczak, Steve Scheiner

Steve Scheiner

This paper presents the first ab initio attempt to construct the stretching fundamentals ν_FX and ν_F...N (X=H, D, Li) in the FX...NH₃ complexes taking into account the mechanical anharmonicity. A potential‐energy surface V(r_FX,R_F...N) grid was generated at the self‐consistent‐field and second‐order Møller–Plesset levels. The coefficients fitting the potential‐energy surface up to the fourth order have been used to compute the ν_FX and ν_F...N stretching modes. The vibrational problem is solved by means of a variational treatment which includes the effects of mechanical …

Wyoming Wilderness Study Report Statewide Overview, United States Bureau Of Land Management

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

The BLM began the wilderness review in accordance with the requirements of Section 603(c) of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA) dated October 21, 1976. This Act mandated that within 15 years the BLM would inventory and study its lands for their wilderness suitability and that based on this review, the Secretary of Interior would forward his wilderness recommendations to the President.

The recommendation for this WSA is to designate 17,150 acres of BLM land and 1,390 acres of State land as wilderness. This alternative is considered to be the environmentally preferable alternative as it would result in the least change in the natural environment over the long term. The entire 17,150 acres of federal land and 1,390 acres of state land within the WSA are recommended for wilderness designation and are shown on the Bobcat Draw Badlands WSA map. The state lands would be recommended for acquisition to enhance the manageability of the area as wilderness.

Utah Multihazards Planning Demonstration Project - A Case Study Report, United States Federal Emergency Management Agency

All U.S. Government Documents (Utah Regional Depository)

This report is intended to describe, document, and evaluate the approach used in the Utah Multihazards Mitigation Project (UMP) which culminated in the Utah Plan, and to make that project experience available for use by other State and local governments throughout the nation. The report summarizes the planning and decision-making process followed, describes the specific mitigation measures identified, and assesses the transferability of the Utah approach and requirements for its replication by other State and local governments.
