Stream Pollution: Progress in Pollution Control in the Ohio River Basin
Progress in the control of stream pollution in the Ohio River Basin is summarized from four angles: (1) Plans for sewage treatment; (2) handling of detrimental industrial wastes; (3) development of public opinion favoring water conservation; and (4) Federal laws and compacts.
Under Angle (1), a warning is sounded that something must be done, for in critical drought periods the sewage pollution is becoming too great a burden for even modern water purification plants to cope with . Records show that $12 000 00 0 have been expended under Public Works Administration and Works Progress Administration programs to improve sewage disposal along the main stem of the Ohio River.
It is pointed out under Angle (2) that co-operative programs between the United States Public Health Service and the States have overcome detrimental phenol pollution and are now reducing acid mine drainage from abandoned bituminous coal mines by air-sealing. The total daily acid mine drainage is estimated to be approximately 15 000 000 lb.
