Stream Pollution: Stream Pollution Problems at Cincinnati, Ohio
Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 104, Issue 1
Abstract
The nuisances created by sewage and industrial wastes as they have affected the condition of the Ohio River have been under observation since 1908. From time to time remedial measures have been recommended. Due to the fact that the river for the most part is the boundary line between a number of States, a correction of the pollution problem will require the joint co-operative action on the part of these States, or a number of them. Complete canalization of the Ohio River further complicates the problem, as do floods and extreme periods of low flows. The paper for the most part deals with river conditions within the Cincinnati Metropolitan Area.
