The impact of thermal power plant cooling systems on aquatic environments was the subject of a workshop sponsored by the Electric Power Research Institute. Volume I contains the deliberations of the workshop and 11 high-priority research recommendations. Volume II contains topical papers discussing the impact of power production on estuaries and tidal rivers; the reaction of small fish to perforated plates; effects of entrainment, entrapment, and impingement, and effects of power plants on fish populations and minimization of fish loss. Measurement, reduction, and ecological impact assessment of entrainment and impingement mortality at power plants were the themes of the proceedings of the Third National Workshop on Entrainment and Impingement. A panel discussion on impingement covered representative important species, data analysis, and the economics of environmental studies and pollution control. Fourteen papers from this symposium are discussed in appropriate sections of this review.
