“…Storm-water basins for aquifer recharge with reclaimed water D. A. Aronson (1976aAronson ( , 1976bAronson ( , 1978 reported that a study of 205 storm-water basins in Nassau County, New York, showed that 14 of the 50 largest basins are suitable for infiltration of reclaimed wastewater. Mathematical, numerical, and analog-model analyses of basin performance during infiltration, and the effects of such recharge on the local and regional water table, indicated that (1) all 14 selected basins can conditionally accommodate both re claimed water and runoff from large-magnitude storms without overflowing; (2) the most efficient method of supplemental recharge requires partition ing of each basin so that runoff and reclaimed water can be applied alternately to each basin half; (3) the partition height of the basin governs duration of the application-rest cycle for infiltration of reclaimed water; (4) the duration of storm-runoff contain ment and the height of the water-table mound that develops beneath a basin are the principal limiting factors in supplemental recharge; (5) the quantity of reclaimed water that can infiltrate to the aquifer through the 14 basins, from postulated-design rates of recharge, is 146,000 m3/d; (6) the regional water-table rise resulting from supplemental re charge by the 14 basins will partly offset the watertable decline caused by sewer installation in parts of Nassau and Suffolk Counties; and (7) the 14 basins cannot compensate for the estimated 350,000 m3/d long-term water deficiency anticipated in Nassau County.…”

“…Related to this, biomass accumulation in depth could increase over time as a result of bacteria reaching the bottom of the filter and producing EPS. Over time, biomass accumulations could cause deep-clogging, a very difficult problem to mitigate, as opposed to surface clogging which can be mitigated with resting periods or surface scarification (Aronson and Seaburn 1974).…”
