Because of the seasonal overflow of the numerous westward-flowing streams, the lowland areas of the Paraneña region also experience poor drainage conditions, particularly in the Ñeembucú Plain in the southwest, where an almost impervious clay subsurface prevents the absorption of excess surface water into the aquifer.

Because tailings dams often store toxic chemicals from the mining process, they have an impervious liner to prevent seepage.

Because of delays in construction, a number of nuclear power plants in the United States have resorted to dry cask storage of waste on-site indefinitely in nearly impervious steel and concrete casks.

Because impervious bedrock is more than below the reservoir, the builders had to line the reservoir with a layer of asphalt and clay to prevent water seeping into the ground.

Because impervious surfaces displace living vegetation, they reduce ecological productivity, and interrupt atmospheric carbon cycling.

Because such waves conserve the amount of energy they transmit through any spherical boundary surface drawn around their source, and because such surfaces have an area that is defined by the square of the distance from the source, the power of EM radiation always varies according to an inverse-square law.

Because the existence of these points of space as such, that is, as truly indivisible unities, has its basis in the fact that the points are one with the bodies that fill them ; because, therefore, all possible space is coincident with the physical world ( as in Wycliffe's system, in general, reality and possibility correspond ), there can as little be a vacuum as bounding surfaces that are common to different bodies.

Because of impurities, such as clay, sand, organic remains, iron oxide and other materials, many limestones exhibit different colors, especially on weathered surfaces.

Because it is acidic, it can dissolve mineral deposits from glass, coffee makers, and other smooth surfaces.

Because dew is related to the temperature of surfaces, in late summer it is formed most easily on surfaces which are not warmed by conducted heat from deep ground, such as grass, leaves, railings, car roofs, and bridges.

Because the proximal row is simultaneously related to the articular surfaces of the radius and the distal row, it adapts constantly to these mobile surfaces.

Because the illumination and detection optics can be situated remotely, the method may be used for moving surfaces such as high speed motor surfaces.

Because of their coarse surfaces, some ground stone tools were used for grinding plant foods and were polished not just by intentional shaping, but also by use.

Because the " infectious dose " for some pathogens can be very small ( 10-100 viable units, or even less for some viruses ), and infection can result from direct transfer from surfaces via hands or food to the mouth, nasal mucosa or the eye, ' hygienic cleaning ' procedures should be sufficient to eliminate pathogens from critical surfaces.

Because corrosion is a diffusion-controlled process, it occurs on exposed surfaces.

Because optical mice render movement based on an image which the LED ( or infrared diode ) illuminates, use with multicolored mouse pads may result in unreliable performance ; however, laser mice do not suffer these problems and will track on such surfaces.

Because the hydrophilic and closely spaced cellulose fibers of the paper provide traction for capillary action, water and wet paint have a strong tendency to migrate from wetter to drier surfaces of the painting.

Because it lacks conventional stabilizing surfaces or the associated control surfaces, in its purest form the flying wing suffers from the inherent disadvantages of being unstable and difficult to control.

Because the balls are rolling they have a much lower coefficient of friction than if two flat surfaces were sliding against each other.

Because the only part of the pump in contact with the fluid being pumped is the interior of the tube, it is easy to sterilize and clean the inside surfaces of the pump.

Because of this, although the plates provide good protection for impacts from above, they nonetheless permit the chiton to flex upward when needed for locomotion over uneven surfaces, and also the animal can slowly curl up into a ball when it is dislodged from the underlying surface.

Because they are members of the same associate family of surfaces, one can bend a catenoid into the shape of a helicoid without stretching.

Because of the possibility of electron emissions from highly charged surfaces, the voltages used in the accelerator have an upper limit, so this can't be as simple as just increasing voltage to match increased mass.

Because mămăligă sticks to metal surfaces, it can be cut with a string into slices, and is eaten by holding it with the hand, just like bread would be.

Because the buses would not stop on the parkway, land for bus stations and for parking areas nearby will be needed.

Because they are found everywhere, convenience stores in Taiwan provide services on behalf of financial institutions or government agencies such as collection of city parking fees, utility bills, traffic violation fines, and credit card payments.

Because of parking challenges in the downtown area, many thriving independent businesses can be found in convenient areas throughout the city where access for their customers is more centralized and parking is more abundant.

Because of this susceptibility to weathering, tombolos are sometimes made more sturdy through the construction of roads or parking lots.

Because of its easy road access and ample parking lots, Mount Seymour is often used as a filming location.

Because Coit Tower is such a popular tourist attraction, at peak times, the street can be backed up and the wait for parking to open up can be long.

Because of the dig, the construction of underground parking facilities for a planned development on the site could not be constructed at their intended location.

Because of BedZED's low-energy-emission concept, cars are discouraged ; the project encourages public transport, cycling, and walking, and has limited parking space.

Because the park sits atop a parking garage and the commuter rail Millennium Station, it is considered the world's largest rooftop garden.

Because the parking lot had not yet been paved, a large sign proclaimed " Please excuse our muddy face ".

Because the boundary between parking space and driving area is not always well-defined, the length of a parking space is more difficult to establish.

Because of a new computer controlled fuel injection, ignition and ABS system, more vehicle information needed to be displayed through any warning or notification lights ; so inside the cab where a small compartment was once located on the dash, a new " message center " with four small rectangular light spots, contained the check engine light and other tell-tales including one for the parking brake and the ABS if the truck was so equipped.

Because they are found everywhere, convenience stores in Taiwan provide services on behalf of financial institutions or government agencies such as collection of the city parking fee, utility bills, traffic violation fines, and credit card payments.

Because it was the church's first temple ( save the roughly contemporaneous Bern Switzerland Temple ) built outside of an LDS-dominated settlement, the Los Angeles Temple was the first LDS temple explicitly designed for automobile accessibility: its parking facilities were larger than those of any temple built previously, and there is no direct pedestrian connection between the front doors and Santa Monica Boulevard.

Because the facility is located in a city park, the New Britain Parks and Recreation Department is in charge of parking at the stadium.

Because the attendance at games frequently exceeds the number of available spaces ( especially on weekends ), parking often overflows into grassy areas around the stadium, or onto nearby streets.

Because of the Navy connection, Lucas was able to access filming locations which would not otherwise have been available to him: the USC computer center, a parking lot at UCLA, the Los Angeles International Airport, and the Van Nuys Airport.

Because there is no lower limit, courses can be found in small corners of parks or in the fringe around parking lots.

Because it is located in downtown Joliet, there is a lot of free parking near the stadium.

Because of the concentration of multi-family uses and the urban character of the neighborhood, parking is at a premium.

* Because the doors stay within the car's track throughout their range of movement, they are useful when parking in tight spaces.

Because there is no organized parking system, many small businesses and non-profit organizations provide parking.
