Coordinating water resources in the federal system: the ground water-surface water connection
The study focuses on the institutional arrangements and relationships involved in the conjunctive management of groundwater and surface water supplies. Although there will be attention to intergovernmental arrangements for protection of groundwater quality, the report has to do primarily with maximizing, allocating, and preserving the supply yield of groundwater resources. It is hoped that the focus may contribute to an understanding of intergovernmental roles and relationships in groundwater management and that such an understanding may help in adapting some of the information gained from hydrologic investigations, environmental management studies, and water supply plans to improved resource management.
