Prepared by the Animal Waste Containment Committee of the Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCE.

Animal Waste Containment in Lagoons provides a comprehensive view of the state-of-the-art practice of animal waste containment and gives directions for future research techniques. Topics Include:

• Fate of nitrogen compounds in animal waste lagoons;
• Seepage and transport through anaerobic lagoon liners;
• Clogging of animal waste lagoon liners;
• Evaluating seepage losses and liner performance at animal waste lagoons using water balance methods;
• Use of coal combustion by-products as low permeability liners for manure storage facilities; and
• Air quality issues associated with livestock production.

Practitioners in the following disciplines: water resources, environmental, geotechnical, and agricultural engineering will find this manual to be very beneficial.
