Begun in 1973, the Review of Progress in Quantitative Nondestructive Evaluation (QNDE) is the premier international NDE meeting designed to provide an interface between research and early engineering through the presentation of current ideas and results focused on facilitating a rapid transfer to engineering development.
This site provides free, public access to papers presented at the annual QNDE conference between 1983 and 1999, and abstracts for papers presented at the conference since 2001.

Abstract
Many freeways in California have storm water pumping plants located near a bridge structure to de-water depressed sections of the freeway. The Ravenswood Slough Pumping Plant is located near the Dumbarton Bridge, which links southern Alameda County on the east to San Mateo County on the west (an 8,600 foot long structure, which carries over 50,000 vehicles daily). This pumping plant is the largest state- maintained pumping facility and drains all storm water into the San Francisco Bay for the City of Menlo Park.
