Download or read book A Review of Options for Interjurisdictional Institutions for the Northern River Basins Study written by Steven Alexander Kennett and published by The Study. This book was released on 1995 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents a series of options for interjurisdictional river basin institutions for consideration by the Northern River Basins Study. After an introduction, the report discusses a series of paired concepts that have important implications for institutional arrangements: governmental versus nongovernmental responsibilities; technical versus political issues; power versus influence; and centralization versus decentralization. A list of specific questions illustrates the type of decision path for selecting particular institutions. The report then discusses a number of possible purposes and functions for an interjurisdictional body in the Northern River Basins. The next four sections set out the following models for interjurisdictional arrangements: the intergovernmental model, the independent commission model, the government-driven inclusive model, and the stakeholder-driven inclusive model. For each model, a general description is followed by illustrative case studies. The report ends with a review of a modular approach to institutional design.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes and presents results from a project designed to test the toxicity of depositional sediments from the upper Athabasca River using freshwater benthic invertebrates in chronic exposure studies under laboratory conditions. The investigators performed additional analyses on the in-situ benthic invertebrate community structure to describe species distribution and abundance. The report includes description of the methods used to collect sediments and benthic invertebrates from depositional areas upstream and downstream from Hinton, the laboratory toxicity testing procedures, and the processing of samples for invertebrate analysis. The appendices include raw data, diversity indices, and summaries of total invertebrate counts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive review of the relevant literature on managing conflicts stemming from the quantity and quality problems of water around the world. So far, few comprehensive and interdisciplinary analyses of such international surface water conflicts have been produced. The literature surveyed indicates that while in many areas there has been extensive research and analysis, there continues to be a need for more studies on the specific situations that lead to conflicts over water and other environment resources. Lateral learning, an attempt to understand the similarities between all conflicts over natural resources, will lend itself to future applications in predicting and preventing these conflicts. A survey of internati9nal watersheds provides some bibliographical and general data collected from over 200 transboundary watersheds. A subset of case studies of the exhaustive list of international watersheds is examined in greater detain. A related effort is a compilation and analysis of relevant water treaties, and the rationale for their implementations.
