SOURCES AND MIGRATION OF HIGHWAY RUNOFF POLLUTANTS. VOLUME III: RESEARCH REPORT

The overall objectives of this research were to identify the sources of highway pollutants, and to determine their deposition and accumulation within the highway system and subsequent removal from the highway system to the surrounding environment. The purpose of this research was to identify opportunities to practice pollution mitigation. Data collected at four sites included atmospheric deposition and removal, saltation, highway surface loads, runoff quantity and quality, groundwater percolation, soil and vegetation, traffic characteristics, highway maintenance, climatological data and source investigative studies.
