REST AREA SEWAGE DISPOSAL AND WATER SUPPLY

THE SECTION ON WATER SUPPLY CONSIDERS WELLS, SURFACE WATERS, AND MUNICIPAL SOURCES. AS THE LAST IS RARELY CLOSE ENOUGH AND THE SECOND REQUIRES A COMPLETE WATER TREATMENT PLANT, MOST OF THE DISCUSSION IS ABOUT THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF WELLS, WITH SPECIAL ATTENTION GIVEN TO ASSURING SANITARY SUPPLY. WITH RESPECT TO SEWAGE TREATMENT, THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF THREE TYPES ARE DISCUSSED: SEPTIC TANKS, EXTENDED AERATION PACKAGE PLANTS, AND STABILIZATION PONDS.
