Section 7103-9.0 - Conclusion

9.1 The use of land treatment systems in Delaware is increasing because these systems provide a safe, economical, and environmentally sound method of waste management. Federal and State funds for the construction of municipal waste treatment facilities have begun to diminish. This reduction in federal government support creates a purpose to reevaluate the need for conventional "concrete and steel" wastewater treatment facilities. It is imperative that an expanded list of alternatives be made available.

9.2 This Policies and Procedures document has briefly introduced the subject of land treatment systems. More detailed information is presented in the following general technical guidelines:

Land Treatment of Wastewaters	Part II
Land Treatment of Sludges and Sludge Products	Part III
Land Treatment of Agricultural Residuals	Part IV (deleted)

These sections are intended to provide procedural and technical assistance for the evaluation and implementation of land treatment systems.
