       Notes - general: Abstract:  Water quality problems from impermeable
                        urban surface runoff are presenting increasingly
                        significant effects at both the short-term, acute, and
                        longer term, chronic, timescale.  The paper identifies
                        the anachronism in, and the diversity of, historical
                        organisation responsibilities for urban runoff as
                        being a principal mitigating factor in limiting
                        satisfactory, cost-effective, catchment control.  It
                        is recommended that effective source control
                        procedures for stormwater runoff control must form the
                        basis for best practical options for achieving
                        integrated pollution control in urban catchments.
