1 online resource (xxvi, 646 pages) : illustrations, maps
The Republican Congress of 1994 cast a sharp light on all Federal programs, including environmental expenditures such as the Clean Water Act, which is the most expensive. This book provides a detailed, scientific analysis of the impact of the Clean Water Act, demonstrates how the Act's goal of "fishable and swimmable" waters has been widely achieved throughout the country, and documents the local economic benefits derived from water quality improvements, using case studies from the Potomac Estuary and the Upper Mississippi River.
Introduction -- An examination of BOD loading before and after the CWA -- An examination of "worst-case" do in waterways below point sources -- Case study assessments of water quality -- Connecticut River case study -- Hudson-Raritan estuary case study -- Delaware estuary case study -- Potomoc estuary case study -- James River estuary case study -- Upper Chattahoochee river case study -- Ohio River case study -- Upper Mississippi River case study -- Willamette River case study.
