Pontszerű és/illetve kiterjedt szennyezésforrás Explanation: Amint az az alábbiakból világosan kitetszik : A point source egyébként a fizikában is igen gyakran használatos kifejezés a pontszerű forrásra. Tagadása `nem pontszerű forrásként kevésbé szerencsés, mint `kiterjedt-ként. Point Source Pollution Pollutants that are coming from a concentrated originating point like a pipe from a factory or a large registered feedlot with a specific point of discharge. Point Source Pollution is registered sources of potential pollution and is regulated by federal, state and local laws. The Shawnee County Conservation District generally is not involved with point source pollution. Non-Point Source Pollution An official definition used for several years in Kansas has been: Pollutants from as source that is not required to have a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (NPDES). NPDES permits are required for cities, industries, storm water runoff from cities over 100,000 population, storm water runoff from certain industries and animal feedlots with more than 1000 animal units. Everything left over is a non-point pollutant source. The conservation district likes to explain Non-Point Source Pollution this way. Pollutants detected in a concentrated water source such as a stream, river or lake, that come from a wide range of sources. These pollutants come from sources the common person has control over. You know, like that used oil poured into storm drains or on the ground. It is more of a way to express the accumulation of pollutants as a result of common, wide spread activities in both urban and rural areas. Reference: http://www.cjnetworks.com/~sccdistrict/nps.htm |
