Setting the ContextComprehensive water
and wastewater management planning
Focus on Human and Environmental Health
Nitrogen and Phosphorus impacts on coastal embayments and inland kettle ponds

Where are we going?Tools for predicting future conditions- more
phosphorus, more plant and algal growthReduced recreational opportunities, aesthetics,
fisheries

Criteria to Set Remedial PrioritiesMatrix of protection and restoration alternatives
Technical feasibility – track record on Cape Cod Longevity of solutionRelative cost and environmental benefit
Priority pondsExtent of use impairmentOutlook for future- water and phosphorus models Public access
Community desires and commitmentOthers?
