1. Trees and other plants help to control surface runoff.

2. Area having a common outlet for its surface runoff.

3. During such a storm, the surface runoff causes streams and rivers to swell.

4. More exotic and harmful elements of TDS are pesticides arising from surface runoff.

5. In contrast, acid loads from surface runoff and soil erosion were minor at this particular site.

6. Crusts create a surface roughness that slows the surface runoff of water and may trap soil particles arriving via wind deposition

7. Canebrakes have also been shown to be effective buffers along streams and rivers, trapping sediments and nutrients from agricultural and other surface runoff

8. Naturally occurring springs are better, although most householders build a concrete cover around these to protect them from animals and surface runoff.

9. Surface runoff and groundwater seepage through waste piles are typically very acidic and contain high concentration of dissolved metals including iron, aluminum, manganese, copper, lead, nickel and zinc.

10. Acid mine waters (pH 3–5) at the closed Wangaloa coal mine have resulted from surface runoff and groundwater seepage in contact with pyrite-bearing waste rock piles.

11. This report predicted that throughout the life of the mine, water in the Central pit lake will not become acidic due the alkalinity of the inflowing groundwater and surface runoff.

12. The results show that the surface runoff mainly are formed in the middle and the high mountainous area in the inland arid areas and dissipate in the pediment plain and desert.

13. The oxidation of sulphide-rich mine tailings stored on land by acidophilic bacteria is frequently associated with severe environmental degradation, as metal-rich acid drainage from the tailings contaminates groundwater and surface runoff.

14. ‘Slope Aspect or direction of exposure may also influence surface runoff.’ ‘Planted with a southern Aspect to take advantage of the low arc of the winter sun, it has trees, shrubs, herbaceous plants and dwarf bulbs.’ ‘This is a viewpoint sandwich stop with a southerly Aspect.’

15. ‘Slope Aspect or direction of exposure may also influence surface runoff.’ ‘Planted with a southern Aspect to take advantage of the low arc of the winter sun, it has trees, shrubs, herbaceous plants and dwarf bulbs.’ ‘This is a viewpoint sandwich stop with a southerly Aspect.’

16. The railway company submits that the proposed slope pavements are not an integral essential part of the bridge substructure (abutments) in this instance but are being installed more for the aesthetics of the roadway passing under the subway and for controlling any adverse impact of surface runoff (drainage) under the superstructure.
