Release of wastewater phosphorus from an aquifer into Point Pelee marsh / by: C. Ptacek [and five others].: En13-5/99-251E-PDF
"The paper describes hydrogeological, geochemical and microbiological controls on nutrient transport from active and abandoned wastewater disposal systems at Point Pelee National Park and in the shallow sand aquifer up to the edge of the marsh. Point Pelee National Park relies on tile beds for wastewater treatment for over 500,000 park visitors annually. Nutrient transport in relation to pH and redox zonation is evaluated. Long-term loadings of wastewater nutrients from active and abandoned sites and implications related to siting future disposal systems are discussed"--Current status.
