| Summary: | The motivation behind this book comes largely from the experience of the author attempting to find solutions to recent problems of rivers and drought management. Water Resources: A New Era for Coordination addresses current challenges of the water resources industry such as those dealing with the environment, population and development, water supply, floods and flood control, navigation, hydroelectric power, irrigation, multiple (comprehensive) purpose planning system, water quality and pollution control, runoff control/storm water management and standards, coordination under present institutions, and coordination through Federal/State planning. It stresses the need for coordination between current environmental regulations and water resources planning, and covers much of the history of water resources planning. |
