Ground water is derived partly from infiltration of surface water through the riverbed of the adjacent Mad River. Of particular concern is biological pathogen <i>Cryptosporidium parvum</i> that is resistant to conventional treatment.</p> <p>Transient, finite-difference ground water flow modeling and particle tracking are conducted, based on a geologically similar model near Dayton, Ohio. Site-specific parameters used for modeling are derived from previous investigations, pump tests, and gain-loss studies conducted at the SWTP.</p> <p>Modeling is conducted for a flooding event when the aquifer is most sensitive to surface infiltration. Minimum travel times from Mad River to the production wells were estimated at around a day, but do not account for river bank filtration. The results provide a basis for additional study on the sensitivity of infiltration of surface contaminants.</p> 2005 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1132341101 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1132341101 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
