Abstract | The dominant water resources issues and the principles and practices proven effective in dealing with the issues have been placed in four categories: institutional, long-term management and planning, real-time management and operations and financial. Such an arrangement provides a perspective for examining issues across all economic sectors and allows formulation of solutions that will constitute a truly comprehensive, balanced approach to the situation encountered in managing these resources. The presentation reflects information gathered from various sources, most important being, a review of current successful resources management in numerous countries throughout the world that identified basic principles and best practices that apply across a range of governmental structures, cultures and physical conditions. (Authors' abstract). |
