This paper details an application of mathematical programing to the problem of optimal water quality control in an estuary. The mathematical models allow for the possibilities of at‐source treatment, regional treatment plants, and by‐pass piping. Actual data from the Delaware Estuary are used to solve a large‐scale problem and the solution is given. The results indicate that a regional treatment system for the Delaware Estuary is superior, in terms of total cost, to other proposed schemes.
