CSET 380 - Environmental Analysis I

Institution:

BridgeValley Community and Technical College

Subject:

Civil/Surveying Engr Tech

Description:

Mankind has achieved much in the industrial world. While most of these achievements have been beneficial, there have been some adverse affects on our environment. Emphasis is focused on two major topics of environmental concern - water resources, and waste. A study of basic water supply, including surface and groundwater, is offered. The study is expanded to investigate the various sources of water pollution, methods used to measure water quality, and methods developed to control the pollution of water. A similar study of waste - including municipal solid waste (garbage), coal mine refuse, hazardous waste and radioactive waste - is conducted. Both major topics are examined closely from the regulatory viewpoint, with emphasis placed on regulatory controls enacted and the responsibilities of industry and individuals to conduct business within the regulatory framework of our government.
