Water water everywhere
Article Abstract:
The construction of San Diego, CA's new $194 million North City Water Reclamation Plant (NCWRP) will result in the usage of activated-sludge wastewater treatment to produce filtered, disinfected water for industrial and agricultural use. Water from the plant will be supplied for nonpotable use through a through a 45 mi pipeline distribution system. The plant contains many design innovations, including waterfowl shields and walls built to withstand seismic movement. The 30 mgd plant which will ultimately handle 45 mgd will be on line in 1997.

Turning on the waterworks (water supply project in Lake Michigan) (Special Issue: Water Resources)
Article Abstract:
The centrality of the role of civil engineers in the creation of the largest water supply project in Illinois is brought into focus. Their excellence were evident from the project's conception and financing through public information dissemination, administrative intergovernmental agreements, planning, design, construction and start-up phases until the actual operation. Environmental impact and aesthetics were also considered in the siting and design of the project.
