Surface Runoff 1
Surface Runoff 1 :
Precipitation, snowmelt, or irrigation water in excess of what can infiltrate the soil surface and be stored in small surface depressions; a major transporter of nonpoint source pollutants. Irrigation: Applying water or wastewater to land areas to supply the water and nutrient needs of plants. Nonpoint Source: Pollution that is not released through pipes but rather originates from multiple sources over a relatively large area. Nonpoint sources can be divided into source activities related to either land or water use including failing septic tanks, improper animal-keeping practices, forest practices, and urban and rural runoff
