Managing urban wet-weather flows : on the road to sustainability (editorial) / by J. Marsalek, S. Kok, H. Colas.En13-5/04-210E-PDF

"This editorial article introduces a collection of 14 papers on stormwater management and combined sewer overflow (CSO) control and treatment in a theme issue of the Water Quality Research Journal of Canada. The thoughts discussed include continuing interest in the management of urban wet-weather flows, stormwater impacts on receiving waters and their ecosystems, and stormwater management within the context of sustainable communities. Innovative approaches to CSO treatment and control include optimization of existing facilities using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling and implementing high-rate treatment in storage facilities, and optimal utilization of sewer system/CSO facility capacities by operation in time. In this process, existing and future environmental stressors need to be accounted for, including growing urban population, releases of chemicals, ageing infrastructure and climate change"--Abstract.
