This file, "Constructed Wetlands Bibliography, Part VII: Urban Runoff" is one section of a seven-part constructed wetlands bibliography on using constructed wetlands for wastewater treatment. The bibliography was compiled by United States Department of Agriculture staff from the Ecological Sciences Division of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, formerly the Soil Conservation Service, and the Water Quality Information Center at the National Agricultural Library. The complete bibliography can be accessed as either a single large (450K) file containing more than 600 citations or in parts organized by topic.

ANNOTATION Developing wetlands to treat wastewater presents a different set
of problems than developing a system to treat urban stormwater
runoff. Municipal wastewater (from an area with separate storm
and septic systems) tends to have a consistent flow with
characteristic water quality while urban storm water is variable
in water quantity and quality. The differences and creation of
particular wetlands are presented in this paper.

ANNOTATION The Urban Stormwater Treatment Marsh was designed to treat

different subsystems function: System A simulates pretreatment;
system B provides a combination overland flow and pond system; and
system C provides secondary treatment. Marsh development and
treatment effectiveness were monitored during the wet seasons of
1984-1985 and 1985-1986.

Abstract: Microbial biomass C, soil respiration, denitrification enzyme
activity (DEA), and potential net N mineralization and nitrification were
compared in two constructed and three natural wetlands in Massachusetts and
Rhode Island. The constructed wetlands studied had marsh and wet meadow
vegetation and received storm water discharge directly from a large
shopping mall and its associated parking lots. The natural sites
encompassed three soil drainage classes (moderately well drained, poorly
drained, and very poorly drained) across an upland to wetland transition
zone with red maple (Acer rubrum L.) swamps and mixed oak (Quercus sp.)
forests in the transition zone. Our objective was to determine if
microbial biomass and activity were similar in the constructed wetlands and
the most common type of natural wetland in our area. Microbial biomass C,
DEA, and potential net N mineralization and nitrification were similar
among the constructed and natural wetland sites. In all cases, levels of
these parameters in the constructed wetlands fell within the range of
variability observed in the natural wetlands. Denitrification enzyme
activity was higher (p < 0.05) in the constructed wetlands than in the
moderately well drained soils at the natural sites. Soil respiration was
generally lower (p < 0.05) in the constructed wetlands than in the natural
wetlands. The results suggest that the constructed wetlands have a
significant and active microbial community that facilitates nutrient
cycling and water quality maintenance functions similar to natural
wetlands. The successful development of the microbial community n these
wetlands was likely due to the use of organic substrates construction.

"Interlibrary Loan" file.
1) DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS
The National Agricultural Library (NAL) supplies agricultural
materials not found elsewhere to other libraries.
Filling requests for materials readily available from other
sources diverts NAL's resources and diminishes its ability to
serve as a national source for agricultural and agriculturally
related materials. Therefore, NAL is viewed as a library of last
resort. SUBMIT REQUESTS FIRST TO LOCAL OR STATE LIBRARY SOURCES
PRIOR TO SENDING TO NAL. In the United States, possible sources
are public libraries, land-grant university or other large
research libraries within a state. In other countries submit
requests through major university, national, or provincial
institutions.
If the needed publications are not available from these sources,
submit requests to NAL with a statement indicating their
non-availability. Submit one request per page following the
instructions for libraries below.
NAL'S DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICE INFORMATION FOR THE LIBRARY
The following information is provided to assist your librarian in
obtaining the required materials.
LOAN SERVICE -- Materials in NAL's collection are loaned only to
other U.S. libraries. Requests for loans are made through local
public, academic, or special libraries.
The following materials are not available for loan: serials
(except USDA serials); rare, reference, and reserve books;
microforms; and proceedings of conferences or symposia.
Photocopy or microform of non-circulating publications may be
purchased as described below.
DOCUMENT DELIVERY SERVICE -- Photocopies of articles are
available for a fee. Make requests through local public,
academic, or special libraries. The library will submit a
separate interlibrary loan form for each article or item
requested. If the citation is from an NAL database
(CAIN/AGRICOLA, "Bibliography of Agriculture,"
or the NAL Catalog) and the call number is given, put that call
number in the proper block on the request form. Willingness to
pay charges must be indicated on the form. Include compliance
with copyright law or a statement that the article is for
"research purposes only" on the interlibrary loan form or letter.
Requests cannot be processed without these statements. Please
read copyright notice below.
CHARGES:
* Photocopy, hard copy of microfilm and microfiche - $5.00 for
the first 10 pages or fraction copied from a single article
or publication. $3.00 for each additional 10 pages or
fraction.
* Duplication of NAL-owned microfilm - $10.00 per reel.
* Duplication of NAL-owned microfiche - $ 5.00 for the first
fiche and $ .50 for each additional fiche per title.
BILLING -- Charges include postage and handling, and are subject
to change. Invoices are issued quarterly by the National
Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal Road,
Springfield, VA 22161. Establishing a deposit account with NTIS
is encouraged.
DO NOT SEND PREPAYMENT.
