  abstract: This research examines the theoretical foundations of
  abstract: traditional economic analysis in the forms of Pareto
  abstract: optimality and potential Pareto optimality and explores the
  abstract: theoretical foundations of sustainable development. The
  abstract: underlying assumptions and normative underpinnings of the
  abstract: criteria are investigated and compared to explain the
  abstract: perceived need for sustainable development as a criterion and
  abstract: to evaluate the theoretical complexities of its
  abstract: interpretation and implementation. The criteria are employed
  abstract: to analyze alternative municipal ground water management
  abstract: strategies. An emphasis is on the implications of municipal
  abstract: water supply management schemes for intergenerational equity.
  abstract: A planning horizon of one hundred years is used to evaluate
  abstract: the impacts of current pumping strategies on future
  abstract: generations. Dynamically efficient rates of use of local
  abstract: ground water across the three political entities are
  abstract: analyzed, options for sustainable use of the waters are
  abstract: investigated, and policy instruments which enable efficiency
  abstract: or sustainable development are explored. It is discovered
  abstract: that the strategies used to implement sustainable development
  abstract: are capable of providing substantial protection of the ground
  abstract: water resource in terms of hydraulic head levels and saline
  abstract: water intrusion. Further, the protection of the resources
  abstract: thus afforded is achieved at a relatively low cost in net
  abstract: present value terms.
