Waste Water Management : The Importance Of Wastewater Management

My name is Vynateya Purimetla, and I am an eighth grader currently attending East Hills Middle School, in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Presently, we are in a hydrogeology unit and we have been researching global water crises around the world and the effects they have on people who inhabit those regions. I am writing this letter to address the issues of inadequate sanitation, untreated sewage in groundwater, and holy rivers being polluted due to a host of reasons. These problems are occurring in both rural and urban areas, and are affecting more than 80% of the Indian population who depend on water polluted with untreated sewage, nitrate, and agricultural runoff for basic survival needs, (The Huffington Post). As the leader of the Ministry of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation, I hope that some of the solutions outlined in this letter could be helpful to you in solving India’s water crisis.

In order to address the issue of clean water availability, the objectives must address multiple levels of the social-ecological model simultaneously. Three overarching objectives will be addressed. 1) The current public water system must increase in capacity. The current public water system is small and up to 40% of households do not have access to the public water system (2). 2) Due to the rural nature of the population, expansion of the current system should begin

Specific Purpose: The purpose of this speech is to provide a persuasive speech on the issue of water pollution and inaccessibility to clean water in third world countries and offer some plausible solutions. The three solutions are filtration systems, chlorination, and collection grids.

The implementation process of the RCRA has been a complex and controversial issue in the history of the EPA. It provide a complex problem because the EPA often dictates how hazardous wastes is identify and dispose of. For example, according to Sullivan, the author of Environmental Law Handbook recognizes the implementation process, the author writes “The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) and states have implemented this mandate in extensive regulations issued under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976(RCRA) and the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984.”(Sullivan 147 2014). The EPA policy implementation concepts functioned as the basis for the hazard identification and waste control. This model challenges society to protect the environment by isolating contaminants from the environment while at the same time addressing difficult regulations of hazardous wastes under the RCRA. Since the enactment of the act, it had experienced challenges because the regulation did and received much attention as a result of the hazardous waste classification. The most vital challenge implementing of the RCRA is the policy that rigorously limits on land disposal of hazardous wastes. Moreover, existing hazardous waste regulations do not create robust incentives for disposing of hazardous waste. The author recognized this challenge when he

To do this, people could start out by passing out pamphlets on water purity. Every family would get at least one copy of it. Then a website would be made about this issue. People could put in real facts, like "Better water quality can lead to longer life!" We would also include the link to the site in the pamphlet.

This topic has a lot of correlation to what we have been discussing in class, and the assigned reading- in the sense that water is the basis of life on earth. Many people have the mindset (including myself before the tour) that we will never run out of water. This leads to an exaggeration of water being wasted whether it be from: washing dishes, taking long showers, running water when not using it. I learned from the treatment facility that they collect over 80 million gallons of wastewater a day! It also takes a lot of energy to be able to treat the water. I was surprised to learn the reclaimed water is used to feed parks, golf courses and even used agricultural purposes. This is important, and just like public transportation, should be funded and be labeled as high priority. The reason it should be funded more is because why waste the little fresh water we have left on places that don’t necessarily need them?

The company has been the subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations that govern the discharge of waste product and disposal of wastes.

The Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County have devised a system to provide wastewater management and have implanted ways to recycle a lot of this water. The three treatments are

It shouldn't be limited to people, just because your government decides to switch your drinking water source. After you run a couple laps around the track, or after you finish a tiring soccer game, you should be open to having a cold, clean glass of water. Not led infested, unappetizing, yellow looking water. The idea that children are suffering makes us sick to to our stomachs. No one deserves to live in conditions where quality water is not available at all times. One thing we can do to make sure horrible things like this don't happen, is to not pollute. One way we can do this is by keeping my environment around me clean, clean up after myself, and to never pollute or litter. Not only will we volunteer, but we will inform lots of other people, so they can help, and create a greater impact. We must not think only about ourselves. It should not be a water wheel, or a trash picking object to clean after ourselves. We people these days do whatever we want, whenever we want, expecting other people to look after us. But now, things need to change, we promise to be part of the solution and not the

People all around the world are beginning to recognize the importance of sustainability and how it is the key to future generations. Because the human ecological footprint is reaching the point of limitation, it is necessary that we adapt and develop more efficient, sustainable communities. Due to improper waste treatment and disposal practices, many cities today face the problem of relying on heavily contaminated and polluted sources of water. This problem often arises when pollutants and particulates find their ways into lakes, underground reservoirs, and other accessible water sources. The city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is just one example of how this problem is evolving and may do well to serve as a model for future water management plans. This essay will go over several causes of Pittsburgh’s current state of affair, but most importantly provide Pittsburgh with a guideline to conquer its water issue. The following solution is a four-step process which incorporates a combination of restructuring and reorganizing Pittsburgh’s wastes management. It is designed to address poor water quality but providing gradual steps and alterations to Pittsburgh’s current system of treatment and planning. In the end, this remedy will point the city towards healthier water supplies and overall sustainability.

The South Saskatchewan River Basin will lose a large quantity of quality water. People flushing feminine hygiene products down the toilet is a serious issue. For this reason, we have developed a plan to better our watershed quality/quantity by educating the public as well as taking action to assist people in getting into the habit of properly disposing products. We plan to have 6 bins installed in our school by the school board, have the posters up and have sent out an email with a digital version of the posters and our video to every school. We plan to accomplish this within June 1st, 2016.

The project shall install wastewater treatment system. The wastewater shall be treated to meet the effluent standard, then discharging out of the power plant and shall be connected by OWNER at 1m out of boundary of the power plant.

Watch this TED Talk video by Francis de los Reyes:‘Sanitation is a basic human right’ and post a comment on the discussion forum in relation to the role of government in funding these sorts of projects.

Access to clean water is a basic human right and yet people around the world don’t have that right and they struggle to survive without it. The many uses of clean and potable water include water for drinking to cooking other daily purpose. It is reported that over 1.1 billion people lack access to an improved water resource and three million individuals, and majority of them children, suffer and die from water-related disease. The need to improve water quality and providing clean water should be major project for developed countries like the US and so called “well developed countries”.

Every day Americans depend on public water systems to treat and deliver over 44 billion gallons of water to homes daily (“Importance of Clean Water”). However, Americans
