Impact of road salts on small urban ponds : Rouge River Pond case study / T. Mayer [and three others].En13-5/99-72E-PDF

"A comprehensive study was carried out to investigate the impacts of road salts on the benthic compartment of a small urban detention facility, Rouge River Pond. Although the pond is an engineered water body designed primarily for hydraulic flow management and stormwater treatment, it is representative of many small urban lakes, ponds and wetlands which receive road runoff and are probable high impact areas. Specific objective of the study was to document the porewater chemistry of an aquatic system affected by elevated salt concentrations and to carry out the toxicological assessment of sediment porewater to determine what factors may cause porewater toxicity"--Abstract.
