Milburn and published by Northern Water Resources Studies, Northern Affairs Program, Indian Affairs and Northern Development. This book was released on 1994 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Northern Water Resources Studies Program is one of two programs funded by the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development (DIAND) to deal with mining and the environment. Over the past two years, the Water Resources Division of DIAND has sponsored a series of workshops to review the current state of knowledge about the interactions between northern mineral development and aquatic ecosystems, to identify critical information or research gaps, and to devise a study program to fill those gaps. This report summarizes the findings of these workshops. It describes the environment of the Northwest Territories and Yukon; mineral development in the North and the potential impact from exploration, mine site development and operation, and closure and reclamation; and research needs and prospective studies on water resources, hydrological and physical processes, and biological and ecosystem processes.

Download or read book Confronting the Nation s Water Problems written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-10-14 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to confront the increasingly severe water problems faced by all parts of the country, the United States needs to make a new commitment to research on water resources. A new mechanism is needed to coordinate water research currently fragmented among nearly 20 federal agencies. Given the competition for water among farmers, communities, aquatic ecosystems and other users-as well as emerging challenges such as climate change and the threat of waterborne diseases-Confronting the Nation's Water Problems concludes that an additional $70 million in federal funding should go annually to water research. Funding should go specifically to the areas of water demand and use, water supply augmentation, and other institutional research topics. The book notes that overall federal funding for water research has been stagnant in real terms for the past 30 years and that the portion dedicated to research on water use and social science topics has declined considerably.
