Heavily Modified Water Bodies
This book presents the results of thirty-four case studies in an EU-sponsored project on heavily modified water bodies. The account emphasizes the methods used in the process of identification and designation, and identifies further research needs. The contents are the basis for the agreed European Guidance on artificial and heavily modified water bodies to be used by practitioners in the implementation of the Water Framework Directive.
DeKalb
DeKalb was originally known as Huntley's Grove, named after Russell Huntley, an early settler who was one of its founders. The area had also been known as Buena Vista and DeKalb Center, before settling on the name DeKalb in 1881. The name was derived from Baron Johann DeKalb (1721-1780), a German soldier who served under Washington at Valley Forge and died a Revolutionary War hero. Three august DeKalb men are credited with the invention of barbed wire and began manufacturing it in 1873. Today DeKalb is a world leader in hybrid seed development and genetic research, as well as the home of Northern Illinois University.
The Urban Environmental Crisis in India
This volume represents a unique collection of thoughts, ideas, views and visions of a number of water management experts. The book envisions long-lasting practices in safe water and waste management by talking to local community members, governments, and business owners, in order to find out how they live and what they need to feel healthy, safe, empowered, and successful. The sheer diversity of subjects, strength of arguments, force of articulation and the breadth of vision offered here is sure to provoke the reader to think about India. It highlights that the future of the emerging urban society lies in the proper management of waste and not in mere disposal. It comprehensive index facilitates easy reference and accessibility to the reader. As such, it will be useful for policy makers, administrators, research scholars and other stakeholders.

Effectiveness of Urban Wastewater Treatment Policies in Selected Countries
Water pollution caused by wastewater persists despite three decades of effort to clean up European surface waters and despite the requirements of the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (UWWTD). Several EU Member States have yet to satisfy the requirements of the directive. A European Commission report released in 2004 noted that several countries had failed to designate sensitive areas and were behind schedule in establishing the capacity of sewage treatment as required by the directive deadlines in 1998 and 2000. As the next deadline is approaching at the end of 2005, for extending sewage treatment to urban areas with more than 2000 inhabitants, the EEA has acknowledged the need to improve our understanding of the inherent implementation problem. This pilot study examines the water quality situation and objectives of 6 Member States of the EU, including, Denmark, France, The Netherlands, Spain, Estonia and Poland, with a comparative analysis and conclusions.
Practical Implementation of Nutrient Guidelines
In 1991 the EU announced a directive regarding urban wastewater treatment. Its objective was to have wastewater collection and treatment for all settlements and nutrient removal for all sensitive areas. These measures needed to be implemented in a short time period, before 2000. The directive resulted in a boost in the applied research towards wastewater treatment and a large investment in new facilities. The 2000 Aquatech conference therefore aimed at evaluating how this directive (or similar directives worldwide) was implemented. The 25 papers selected for these proceedings give an overview of the policies related to nutrient removal in a number of regions. They show the differences in approach and in the results of measures taken. New processes have been developed and existing treatment plants have been upgraded for nutrient removal. Several of these new processes are described together with a number of examples of upgrading of existing facilities. These proceedings provide wastewater engineers, policy-makers and managers with a state-of-the-art view of the approaches that can solve eutrophication problems and minimise the impacts on society and the environment.
