Title

Heavy Metal Accumulation And Transport Through Detention Ponds Receiving Highway Runoff

Abstract

Sediment accumulations and associated heavy metal concentration into retention/detention ponds receiving highway runoff from several ponds and metal concentrations in various sediment layers were analyzed to determine the extent of vertical migration. Extraction of heavy metals had been evaluated using various solutions including the United States Environmental Protection Agency Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedures (TCLP). Also, sediments were incubated under various conditions of redox potential and pH to investigate the effects of changes in sediment conditions on the stability of metal-sediment associations. © 1990.
