Tips for street wash water. Industrial facilities and construction sites that discharge debris and sediment to city streets must clean up after their operations in a reasonable amount of time; but they must also do it properly. Washing these pollutants further into the storm sewer system(i. e. washing them into catch basins or other stormwater inlet structures) is not an option. A careful balance must be met between applying enough water to clean the street, but not so much as to either flood the street or cause pollutants to be discharged further into the system.  3, record 2, English, - street%20wash%20water

In some locations, luminescent plankton, disturbed by the nets, produce enough light to outline the nets at night. When this happens the fish can avoid the nets. They can also avoid nets made visible by coatings of mud and debris from rivers in flood. The mud-fouled nets may even be seen by the fish at night when the moon is full.  1, record 3, English, - luminescent%20plankton

À certains endroits, le plancton luminescent, dérangé par les filets, produit suffisamment de lumière pour rendre les filets visibles dans l'obscurité, permettant ainsi aux poissons de les éviter. Les filets peuvent aussi devenir visibles lorsqu'ils sont couverts de vase et des débris que transportent les rivières en crue.  1, record 3, French, - plancton%20luminescent
