About This Book
A practical manual that explains how to dispose of sewage into tidal waters by first describing the formation and measurement of tides and coastal currents, then presenting methods for recording tidal ranges and gauging flows. It addresses selection of outfall sites, estimating daily and hourly sewage volumes including seasonal visitors, and managing stormwater and rainfall. Design topics cover sea-outfall construction, material behavior in seawater, diving operations, and discharge dynamics, while appendices offer techniques for trigonometrical and hydrographical surveying and brief guidance on wind effects and wind-driven pumping.
