Recent Results and Research Needs on Cohesive and Non-Cohesive Sediment Movement in Drainage Systems
A Task Committee has been established to study the problem of sediment movements in urban drainage systems and to make recommendations for new research and for design and modeling improvements. This paper is an initial part of this effort. Sediments can cause sewer blockage, surcharge early overflows and large pollutant discharges and their removal is costly. The review of the recent literature shows that most of the progress has been made in Europe and that fundamental and applied research and development in the United States is urgently needed. It is urged that the National Science Foundation and the Environmental Protection Agency resume funding for further fundamental and applied research and development in this field.
