An Application Of "Storm" Mathematical Modeling For Evaluation Of Nonpoint Source Water Pollution For A Nonurban Watershed, John T. Izzo Jan 1975

An Application Of "Storm" Mathematical Modeling For Evaluation Of Nonpoint Source Water Pollution For A Nonurban Watershed, John T. Izzo

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

Today, the engineer is faced with the task of predicting and evaluating the extent of the Nonpoint Sources that pollute our waterways. A mathematical model may be an extremely useful tool in helping the engineer solve problems in the area of water resources. During the course of this investigation, a literature survey related to the Econlockhatchee River Basin and to the "STORM" mathematical modeling technique for runoff evaluation has been conducted. The latter part of this report deals with an application of the "STORM" mathematical model for predicting quantity and quality of surface runoff for the Econlockhatchee River Basin located …


A Stormwater Overflow Control Device, Richard Duke Stalker Jan 1973

A Stormwater Overflow Control Device, Richard Duke Stalker

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

On Lake Eola, stormwater runoff has been identified as a major source of pollution. Other lakes in Central Florida are experiencing similar decay due to stormwater runoff. A device has been examined for diversion of the initial flows to treatment before discharge into the lake. A graphical aid was developed to select the proper volume required for the device and was applied to a Lake Eola existing collection basin. A laboratory model was designed and constructed based on the scaled-down version of a collecting basin on Lake Eola. This model was used to demonstrate the concept, as well as, indicate …
