This paper presents a mathematical model of regional water quality management using by‐pass piping. The model is developed within the framework of linear programming and a large‐scale problem is solved using semi‐realistic data from the Delaware Estuary. The technique of generation of elements is used in conjunction with the truncated tableau to provide efficient solutions. A possible method of taxation is indicated based on the values of the dual variables.
