DEVELOPMENT OF PUTRAJAYA
WETLAND FOR STORMWATER
POLLUTION CONTROL
(8PG) |
|
The
Putrajaya Wetland is
developed with the
primary objective of
treating the catchment
runoff before it drains
into the Putrajaya Lake
to ensure that the
Lake’s water quality
meets the standard
required for body
contact recreation. A
multi-cell and
multi-stage design was
adopted for its
advantage of better
hydraulic performance
and retention of
pollutants, maximises
areas for planting of
macrophytes and
facilitates
accessibility for
maintenance of the
wetlands. The
constructed wetlands
involve an area of 197
hectares and 12.3
million wetland plants
is one of the largest
constructed wetland in
the tropics. It was
completed in 17.5 months
despite the lack of
relevant data and
experience in the design
and construction of
tropical wetland. Water
quality monitoring
carried out shows that
the constructed wetland
is effective in
stormwater pollution
control. |

Final Concept Report:
Echo Park Lake
Rehabilitation
Proposition O Project
(66PG) |
|
This
report provides a
conceptual overview of
the proposed Echo Park
Lake Rehabilitation
Project (project).
Located at 751 Echo Park
Avenue, in the Echo
Park/Silverlake
community of Los
Angeles, Echo Park Lake
is a 13-acre urban lake
surrounded by 16 acres
of recreational open
space. Echo Park Lake is
connected to the
existing storm drain
system and provides
hydraulic relief to the
neighboring area. Water
quality is a serious
concern in the Lake, and
it was identified on the
2006 California 303(d)
list of impaired water
bodies for the following
pollutants/stressors:
algae, ammonia, copper,
eutrophic, lead, odor,
PCBs, pH, and trash. |

THE PUTRAJAYA WETLAND
PROJECT (5PG) |
|
Putrajaya,
Malaysia’s new Federal
Government
Administrative Centre is
being developed as an
intelligent city and
city in a garden.
Central to this city in
a garden concept is the
400 hectare man-made
lake created by damming
of Sg. Chuau and Sg.
Bisa. The resulting lake
(shown in Figure 1)
forms the centerpiece of
the new city giving it a
distinctive character
and identity. In order
to ensure that the water
entering the lake is
clean and suitable for
body contact
recreational activities,
an environmentally
friendly approach by
constructing a series of
wetlands to treat the
catchment runoff before
it enters Putrajaya Lake
was adopted by
Perbadanan Putrajaya. |

The Use of Vetiver Grass
Wetlands for Sewerage
Treatment in Australia
(10PG) |
|
The Esk
Shire Council has
recently installed a
Vetiver Grass Wetlands
System to treat sewerage
effluent at Toogoolawah
in South East
Queensland. The sewerage
treatment plant is
situated on a 22-ha site
on the northern edge of
town. The aim of this
scheme was to improve
water quality before the
effluent discharges to
the natural wetlands.
The biggest problem with
the quality of the
effluent is its high
nutrient loading. With
the recent changes to
license conditions
imposed by the
Environmental Protection
Agency, the existing
treatment plant no
longer complies with the
license and an upgrade
of the plant was
required. |

VETIVER SYSTEM
APPLICATIONS: Technical
Reference Manual
(135PG) |
|
This
Manual combines the
applications of VS in
land stabilization and
infrastructure
protection, treatment
and disposal of waste
and polluted water and
rehabilitation and
phytoremediation of
contaminated lands.
Similar to the Green
Book, this Manual shows
the principles and
methods of various VS
applications in the
above uses. This Manual
also includes the most
up to date R&D results
for those applications
and numerous examples of
highly successful
results around the
world.

WETLAND HABITAT
MANAGEMENT: A Guide for
Landowners (44PG) |
|
The
purpose of this handbook
is to provide you, the
landowner, with a
reference of practical
and successful wetland
restoration,
enhancement, and
management techniques
for your property. Most
landowners value the
countless natural
resources and
recreational
opportunities their
lands provide. However,
landowners also view
their property as an
economic investment and
value its potential for
income. Therefore, this
publication was designed
to furnish landowners
with an economically
sound, yet practical
approach to wetland
restoration, protection,
and management. |
