Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for improved water resource protection, beginning with grassroots action, is urgent. The water we use depends on networks of wetlands, streams, and watersheds. Land-use activities, however, are changing these natural systems. Often these changes result in ecological damage, flooding, water pollution, and reduced water supply. We need a healthy environment that sustains our personal and community health; we also need vibrant and sustainable economic development that does not destroy the benefits we derive from nature. Our ability to accomplish both depends on how well we can "connect the drops." In this book, Karen Schneller-McDonald presents the basics of water resource protection: ecology and watershed science; techniques for evaluating environmental impacts; obstacles to protection and how to overcome them; and tips for protection strategies that maximize chances for success. Schneller-McDonald makes clear the important connections among natural cycles, watersheds, and ecosystems; the benefits they provide; and how specific development activities affect water quality and supply. The methods described in Connecting the Drops have broad application in diverse geographic locations. The environmental details may differ, but the methods are the same. For water resource managers and concerned citizens alike, Connecting the Drops helps readers interpret scientific information and contextualize news media reports and industry ads—ultimately offering "how to" guidance for developing resource protection strategies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This citizen's guide to ensuring a safe supply of drinking water for all provides the information and analysis that individuals need to understand the issues and to participate in local decision making. The sources of drinking water, the types of human activities that results in contamination, and the contaminants that are of most concern are discussed. The workings of a typical treatment plant, who is responsible for ensuring the safety of drinking water, the requirements and effectiveness of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) of 1974, and the substantive changes made by the 1986 amendments to the act are described. Next, this guide surveys the various problems and issues in the management of drinking water. Discussions on how best to provide safe drinking water, what is considered safe, and what it will cost to provide a safe supply of drinking water are topics of discussion. The handbook concludes with a Guide to Citizen Action, designed to help readers learn more about the quality and management of local drinking water and to take action on issues of local concern as well as protect home water supplies. A glossary is provided, followed by a resource list that includes publications, national environmental organizations, health information organizations, professional membership organizations, state drinking water contacts, and organizations represented by contributing authors.
