A river reached a flood that was passing through it. At a given instant, the storage of water in the reach was estimated as 20 Ha-m. What would be the storage in the reach after an interval of 3 hours, if the average inflow and outflow during the time period are 15 cubic meter per second and 10 cubic meter per second, respectively?

A city’s sewage outfall flows 40 ft3/s of sewage with a BOD concentration of 30 mg/L anda DO of 1.5 mg / L into a small river that has a flow rate of 280 ft3/s and a velocity of 1.1 ft /s.The river has a natural BOD of 3.5 mg/L and at this time of year the DO level is 7 mg/L. Giventhe water temperature this time of year the DO saturation is 8.5 mg / L.

You have the intention to build a house in a rural community with limited facilities,hence you need to install a septic tank and drill a well for drinking water. Havingconsidered the location and proximity of both the septic tank and the drinking waterwell, explain the steps you may take to ensure that the drinking water will not becontaminated by leakages from the septic tank in accordance with governmentregulation.

In many countries, irrigation is depleting aquifers to such an extent that land is subsiding, harvests are decreasing, and it is becoming necessary to drill wells deeper. In many cases, the withdrawal of groundwater has now greatly surpassed the aquifers’ rates of natural recharge. Discuss the possible consequences of this trend. What can society and science do to help alleviate this growing problem?
