10. THERMAL DISCHARGES AND PUBLIC POLICY DEVELOPMENT.

Author

Hanke, Steve H. and Boland, John J.

Abstract

BSTRACT The generation of electric energy in steam-electric power plants is accompanied by the discharge of large quantities of waste heat into the environment. In most cases, this heat is released into natural bodies of water at temperatures relatively close to ambient. In certain locations, such as the Chesapeake Bay, discharges of waste heat may triple in the next decade. It is expected that past practices of thermal discharge, if continued into the future, will result in significant damages to other legitimate users of the water resource, both present and future. This paper reviews the economic causes of these potential damages, and describes the role of public policy as one of removing such causes through regulation incentive or intervention. Possible public policies are reviewed, including prohibition, standards, various types of dollar incentives such as taxes and subsidies, marketable effluent permits, and direct government investment. The innovative power plant siting program recently adopted in Maryland is also discussed. It is concluded that no statements can be made regarding the comparative efficiency or effectiveness of the various policies at the present state of knowledge. It is recommended that policy-makers adopt mixed strategies, preserving as many options as possible for dealing with similar problems in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

11. A SYSTEMS STUDY OF STORM RUNOFF PROBLEMS IN A NEW TOWN.

Author

Mallory, Charles W. and Boland, John J.

Abstract

BSTRACT A system study was conducted on the use of a large number of small reservoirs dispersed throughout an urban community as a means of storm water pollution control. The study was based on an area within the 'new city' of Columbia, Maryland. Water collected and stored in the reservoirs is treated for release or use in meeting sub-potable and potable water demands in the community. Design and performance criteria were developed for such a system. A simulation model and a computerized evaluation technique were used to select the optimal locations and system configurations. The results of this study indicated that such a system would be less expensive than a conventional engineering approach to storm water pollution control. Further, the benefits derived from use of the storm water as a water supply can offset a portion of the cost of pollution control. Several secondary benefits also result from this concept including erosion and sediment control, storm flow dampening, and recreational facilities. A program is now underway to demonstrate this concept in Columbia, Maryland. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

14. The Lethal Effects of X Rays on the Chick Embryo: the Mode and Time of Death and their Bearing on the Determination of the LD50

Author

Boland, John

Abstract

There are four time intervals following irradiation during which the four-day chick embryo is especially liable to die. Death at each of these times is associated with a characteristic mechanism.Using 250 kV X rays at 155 r/min, the LD50for a four-day embryo was found to be 887 r for death within six hours after irradiation, and 717 r for death within ten days after irradiation. A 9 per cent increase in effectiveness was found when the dose-rate was raised from 36 to 151 r/min. Sensitivity to radiation was found to increase by approximately 10 per cent from the third to the fifth day of incubation. It was not possible to show any differences between radiations of H.V.L. from 0·48 to 4·10 mm Cu.
