Sanitarians' work with indoor-tanning businesses: findings from interviews in two major metropolitan areas.


The resource described below addresses a broad range of environmental health issues. It also includes a chapter on radiation exposure and safety.

Environmental Engineering (Fifth Edition)

Edited by Joseph A. Salvato, Nelson L. Nemerow, and Franklin J. Agardy (2003)

Upholding the reputation of its predecessors as the most trusted single-source handbook on the subject, this new edition of Environmental Engineering provides up-to-date, practical guidance on a full range of environmental issues, while delivering the critical material on the sanitation management and engineering methods used by today's leaders in the field.

Environmental Engineering addresses the elements of environmental control in urban, suburban, and rural settings--including general design, construction, maintenance, and operation details related to plants and structures. It provides new material on topics such as

* soil and groundwater remediation,

* radiation exposure and safety,

* environmental emergencies and preparedness,

* hazardous waste remediation,

* incineration,

* transport of pollutants,

* communicable and noninfectious diseases,

* food protection,

* noise control,

* water filtration system technology, and

* solid waste management.

Environmental Engineering is an essential reference for environmental and civil engineers, environmental consultants and scientists, and regulatory and safety professionals in the public and private sectors, and it is a study reference for NEHA's R.E.H.S./R.S., C.F.S.P., and C.E.H.T. exams.
