Abstract:

The study was based upon information available as of the summer of 1967. Data collection programs were not established to define areas where inadequacies existed. Reliance was placed upon published and unpublished reports, waste surveys, and data from ongoing programs. All aspects of water quality were considered. In areas lacking adequate definition, consideration was broad and general. In other areas, more depth and specifics could be developed. All studies were of necessity broad sufficient detail is not, therefore, presented to identify, for instance, specific sizes or locations of waste treatment facilities. Some emphasis was given to establishing waste treatment andor freshwater flow requirements and in evaluating the water quality requirements of other functions in the plans.
