- Evaluating sediment capture rates for different sediment basin designs / by McLaughlin, Richard Allen,1956-(CARDINAL)201709; Markusic, Melanie S.,1972-(CARDINAL)313328; North Carolina.Department of Transportation.Research and Analysis Group.(CARDINAL)272064; North Carolina State University.Soil Science Department.(CARDINAL)160165;
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 18-20).Final report;The effectiveness of sediment control devices was studied on a large NC DOT project to determine the effects of different designs and conditions. Flow and sediment content of water exiting six different traps and basins were measured and the amount of sediment trapped estimated from periodic surveys. Sediment trapping and discharges strongly suggested that commonly used designs are relatively ineffective. The more efficient designs tended to retain more of the coarse fraction entering the basins than the less efficient designs. The improvement in sediment retention with the design improvements will significantly reduce the impacts of land disturbances from construction activity on water quality in nearby streams.Performed by Soil Science Dept., North Carolina State University, sponsored by the North Carolina Dept. of Transportation, Research and Analysis Group

- Empress creed / by Marie, Tarris,author.;
When two outlaw lovers from opposite sides of the war face off, their second chance at happily ever after will come at a cost only one crime king and queen pin are willing to pay. Empress reigns as 1930's Chicago's cunning Queen Pin, yet sultry Dulce Ella Monroe still longs for freedom from oppression her criminal empire provides. But when rivals threaten all that the influential and glamorous Empress built, her last hope of defense walks through the door in sharp-shooting ex-lover Snipes Creed, now a foe for hire bound to the enemy. A decade ago, Perry Savage had stolen Dulce's heart before battles abroad stole their chance at happiness. Discharged into Depression's bleak landscape, taking on the alias Snipes Creed elevated Perry from destitute veteran to contract fixer extraordinaire. But no success could eclipse memories of the one who got away. Facing off on opposing sides yet still bound by unbreakable passion, past promises, and present perils, Snipes and the notorious Empress must determine if their romance can rise again or if devastation will strike when luck inevitably runs dry. For two scarred souls gambling everything on last bets placed in the name of love and legacy, only one question remains: will Chicago burn them both before they burn Chicago down?
