Twenty-First Century Us Water Policy

It is zero hour for a new US water policy! At a time when many countries are adopting new national approaches to water management the United States still has no cohesive federal policy and water-related authorities are dispersed across more than 30 agencies. Here at last is a vision for what we as a nation need to do to manage our most vital resource. In this book leading thinkers at world-class water research institution the Pacific Institute present clear and readable analysis and recommendations for a new federal water policy to confront our national and global challenges at a critical time.
