Water Resources Planning (M50)
- Book Review, by William O. Maddaus

From Book News, Inc.
The Association's Water Resources Planning and Management Committee explains how utilities can develop a plan for new water supplies to accommodate projected future water demands. Utilities have traditionally been responsible for distributing treated drinking water from sources often developed by predecessors or outside entities, but are increasingly required to develop major new water supplies themselves. Few new sources have been developed since the 1970s because of increased public interest, environmental awareness and regulations, and decreasing government funds. Technical, economic, and political perspectives are included. Eight case studies are presented.Copyright © 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
