A common type of temporary storage impoundment for hazardous liquid waste is an open pit or holding pond, called a lagoon. |
Man-made lakes or reservoirs may result from the building of a dam within a natural catchment area or as a complete artificial impoundment. |
The papers state the obvious, such as loss of licence and impoundment of vehicle, as well as court dates. |
Illegally introduced warm-water fishes flourished in the impoundment, presumably replacing the native species. |
We detected no tidal effects on salinity or water level in the impoundment, despite reverse flow at the fishway. |
Traditionally, increased water demands have been met by developing additional water supplies using dams, impoundment reservoirs, and canal systems. |
