Abstract

Most current pollution management in cities is based on treating pollution at the end-of-the pipe, after pollution is generated. This paradigm worked well for treating municipal sewage and industrial effluents – point sources of pollutants. Pollution from these sources has been greatly reduced since passage of the Clean Water Act in 1972. However, the remaining pollution problem in post-industrial cities is mostly caused by nonpoint sources – runoff from lawns, erosion from construction sites, gradual decomposition of automobiles (e.g., erosion of tire particles containing zinc and brake pad linings with copper), and added road salt from de-icing operations. The next section of this chapter shows why the end-of-pipe paradigm cannot be the primary approach for dealing with these types of pollution and why new approaches are needed.

Despite this effort, there are still more than 700 sewage systems serving 40 million people in the U.S. which still have combined sewer systems. Most of these are in older cities in the east and mid-west (see http://​cfpub.​epa.​gov/​npdes/​cso/​demo.​cfm)
