ASSESSMENT OF IMPACTS OF BRIDGE DECK RUNOFF CONTAMINANTS ON RECEIVING WATERS
This digest summarizes the initial results of in-progress research associated with the assessment of bridge deck runoff impacts on receiving waters. It presents the findings of a critical review of scientific and technical literature on water-quality impacts and assessment methods for bridge deck runoff, maintenance practices, and spills. The digest also presents the results of a survey of state and provincial highway agencies addressing mitigation measures currently employed or being considered for bridge deck runoff, maintenance activities, and spills. This information will be especially timely for practitioners interested in current literature and practices associated with bridge runoff.
