Mitigation

♤ Riparian buffer

♤ Interfaces between a flowing body of water and land created near the waterways, farms, roads, etc. in an attempt to filter pollution.

♤ Sediments and nutrients are deposited in the buffer zones instead of deposition in water.

♤ Minimizing the non-point pollution.

♤ Nitrogen testing & modeling

♤ N-Testing is a technique to find the optimum amount of fertilizer required for crop plants. It will reduce the amount of nitrogen lost to the surrounding area.

♤ Treatment of Industrial effluents

♤ Organic farming & Integrated Farming System.

♤ Reduction in livestock densities

♤ Improving the efficiency of use of fertilizer

♤ Treatment of runoff from street & storm drains

♤ Reduction in nitrogen emission from vehicles and power plants

♤ Increase in efficiency of nitrogen & phosphorous removal from municipal waste water
