Are there odors or visual aesthetic conditions to be considered?
A. Floating units collect trash and floatables after they have entered the receiving water and therefore can be subject to odors or unsightly conditions. The floating model may not be applicable if the outfall is close to waterfront development. In Line systems are enclosed and therefore have little or no odor or displeasing aesthetics. End of Pipe systems may be open on top (but covered with grating) and therefore may experience odors if the flows do not scour the system clean.
