Environmental-Political Reality

• 6 Aging NPS in the Northeast with no replacement strategy and protracted shutdown costs due to neutron bombardment. Oyster Creek NPS. will close in 2021.

• New Jersey will be dependent on its neighbors for electrical energy.

• The Pinelands burns while the Hackensack, Passaic, and Raritan Drainage Areas Flood.

• The Shorelines remain vulnerable to Cyclonic and Barometric Weather Events.

Local Concerns

We cannot control the environment, we can, for a reasonable cost, mitigate its most severe effects:

Page 4: Environmental Plans for Sustainable Solutions

• Massive, catastrophic thermal-barometric fires rage.• A failure to cooperatively balance water use

between agricultural, environmental, and public-private aquifers.

• Inept political-environmental management.• California radical environmental interests are

destroying the states’ second largest economic engine, its agricultural industry.

• Arizona, California, and Nevada squabble endlessly over water rights while wasting precious resources with faulty engineering practices.

• The central and southwest is drought stricken while the coastal states and northwest suffer catastrophic flooding from precipitation

• The Federal Government has limited Constitutional Authority

State Driven Cooperative Solutions

Weather is a statistical anomaly, the reoccurrence of stormor droughtIs not a matter of if, but of When . . .And where . . .

• Just 25 to 33 percent of the personal and insurance loses are Beach Front, 66 to 75 percent of the damage totals are on the Flood Plains along the bay shores and rivers•Proposed Dunes only protect the beach and do not mitigate trapped Precipitation.

• This worldwide use depiction apportioned according to ISO Standard 3166-1 • Top three users, of water are, in order: China, India

and the United States• Top uses by percent:• Agricultural 70 percent (Low to moderate profit

made)• Industrial 22 percent (Median profits made)• Domestic 8 percent water use (Expense for

necessary use)• Billing must be based on a use ~ profit ratio• The highest bills will be accrued by industrial users and

then agricultural users with domestic use paying the least

Page 22: Environmental Plans for Sustainable Solutions

Resource Stabilization Requirements• Rainwater Harvesting must become a National

initiative funded as a joint State, City, and Private Venture.

• Public, Private, and Commercial aquifer capping must require state permits.

• All storm-water runoff collectors must include petroleum and controlled substances collection and separation with aquifer repatriation.

• Non-estuarine Watersheds such as NJ’s Great Swamp must be monitored with excesses transferred to aquifers.

• A Nationwide, Inter and Intrastate Redistribution System of Large Mains, with above and below ground Cisterns.

• Geophysical Pumping Systems must be built to transfer errant natural deliveries to locations having needs.

• A Worldwide ban on nitrogen based fertilizers and other similar pollutants must be strictly enforced.

Roman Aqueducts

Aqua Traiana (Aqueduct)– Dated June 109 ECE, Traiana was designed to supply grain mills. During the 17th Century, it was reconstructed by the Vatican. It still delivers water to the gardens of Rome today.

Inverted Siphons: were used for engineering convenience, To raise or lower the height of the flows feed

or to control the water pressure. Roman Engineers employed these in many instances, in spite of poor plumbing lacking sufficient quality to restrain the

pressure. That is not significant today. The generation station is inserted where the Romans might have installed

a granary.

Estimates of actual required labor force is intentionally low ended. There will be situational adjustments as required by the ongoing plan. Financial arrangements must be flexible through forty year building period, beyond that time state and regional support budgets are anticipated to be self-supporting based on Energy and Product consumption receipts.
