Thermal Pollution of Surface Supplies
This article presents a report from five subcommittees formed by the Pennsylvania State Sanitary Water Board to study the control of discharge of heated wastes from industrial production processes into the state's streams and lakes. A special study was made on the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio rivers in the vicinity of Pittsburgh. Approximately 100 miles of river were surveyed during this summer project. A subcommittee on aquatic life and recreation was appointed to report to the general committee on temperature requirements for aquatic life. This subcommittee consisted of representatives of fish and wildlife organizations, the Pennsylvania Fish Commission, and the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS). The committee conducted considerable research into the published literature on the subject, and obtained additional information from specialists in the field. The findings are outlined in the article.
