摘要:

In this joint discussion, Raymond J. Faust, Executive Secretary, American Water Works Association, New York, NY, states that successful water utilities (municipal department, special district or authority, or an investor‐owned utility) must be customer oriented, future oriented, value oriented, profit oriented, and board oriented. Garvin H. Dyer, Vice‐President, Missouri Water Company, Independence, MO, discusses manpower and personnel challenges facing the water industry. He urges ever‐increasing numbers of better educated, highly skilled managers, engineers, and technicians be added to the workforce to carry out the everyday tasks.

摘要:

This article discusses a seawater conversion study that the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) conducted in collaboration with the federal government. The study objective was the development of a preliminary design for the first really big desalting plant that would use atomic fuel as a source of heat, and would also be the first dual‐purpose plant to produce large quantities of electric power.

摘要:

The construction of the second Los Angeles aqueduct will complete the third and final phase of a project conceived and begun more than 60 years ago. The first two phases consisted of the original aqueduct and the Mono Basin Extension. The construction of the second Los Angeles aqueduct will achieve the full development of the water resources of the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada in the Owens Valley and Mono Basin regions. This project is an important facet of the ultimate development of the statewide water program.

摘要:

After the U.S. Public Health Service had identified the primary causes of the water quality deterioration of the Arkansas and Red River basins, and had located the fifteen major natural chloride pollution areas, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began researching the best solutions to the problems of controlling and managing these sources. The study report will be submitted in two parts. The first part sums up the studies to date, together with conclusions and recommendations for authorization of specific works that are found to warrant construction at this time. The second part of the report, also scheduled for submission during 1965, will complete the response to the congressional request for the study by presenting plans for control of all of the major natural source areas throughout the two river basins.

摘要:

Some knowledge of the Great Lakes system as a whole is essential to an understanding of the possibilities (and limitations) of reducing the extremes of lake levels. This article, therefore, first indicates salient features of the system, then discusses variations in the lake levels, and finally examines the problem of regulating the lake levels.

摘要:

This article briefly discusses how costs are allocated both within the city of Baltimore and Baltimore County in this rather esoteric and complex area of distribution facility costs. The problem is complicated by the fact that the zone of influence method has no artificial boundaries. The McIlroy network analyzer tool is discussed.

摘要:

In March 1962, the New Jersey Department of Health formed a committee to advise on the complete and comprehensive modernization of its water and sewage regulations. Two subcommittees were formed, one to develop rules and regulations for water, the other for sewage. The sewage subcommittee found that the existing regulations required some, but not extensive, improvement. The water subcommittee, however, found the existing regulations so inadequate and outmoded that it was necessary to apply a completely new approach to their revision. This article discusses some of the general and special provisions of the new rules and regulations for the design of public water supply facilities.
