EXH AR024708: Literature Search Request — BMPs Copper Removal Stormwater Project 55-2912-01

A 1998 internal email from Ken Ludwa to Sabina Renn requests a literature search on best management practices (BMPs) for removing copper from stormwater, associated with a Port of Seattle project. The email provides an extensive list of search keywords covering filtration, chemical treatment, and various water-treatment technologies such as ion exchange, electrodialysis, and reverse osmosis. It also asks the library to locate two EPA publications on drinking water treatment for small communities.
