Current and future water and wastewater issues will continue to significantly affect amusement facilities throughout the United States, especially those with water attractions.Federal, state, and especially local agencies implement environmental regulations, policies, and fees, causing the development and operation of amusement parks to be more costly and burdensome.The water and wastewater factors affecting recreational parks, and especially water leisure facilities, seem to grow more demanding every year.Such water and wastewater issues can include:
water/wastewater operational and connection fees
filter backwash management and disposal
metering and billing issues
water/wastewater monitoring
stormwater factors
hazardous pool chemicals management
water recycling and conservation
wastewater discharge controls
the need for permits (including NPDES permits)
pool water disposal
