Abstract
The effective control of stream pollution, when viewed as an engineering problem, entails not only the design of sewage and industrial wastes treatment plants, but also the formulation of comprehensive plans for restoring and maintaining entire, river systems in proper condition for various water uses, avoiding the wastefulness of over-correction in some areas and the ineffectiveness of under-correction in other areas. The base data for such plans are obtainable from field and laboratory surveys of a river and its tributary drainage area.
