• Abstract:
  Research is needed to develop a methodology to: 1. Determine a correlation between traffic flow and water runoff quality for this bridge and similar settings, 2. Determine the relationship between water runoff quality from the bridge and effluent quality from the detention pond. Develop a predictive relationship for similar settings, 3. Quantify pollutant loads entering and leaving the Cross Lake Holding Pond, 4. Assess the efficiency of the Cross Lake Holding Pond in removing contaminants from bridge runoff, and 5. Develop recommendations for further investigation.
