Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sponsored by the Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCE. This report explains how to regulate the routine withdrawal of water efficiently (both bureaucratically and economically) and fairly with minimal involvement of the legal system. Combining years of research with practical techniques to set up a program of water withdrawal regulation, the suggested guidelines in this volume will assist state, provincial, or national regulators in regulating water withdrawals from streams, lakes, aquifers, and reservoirs in regions traditionally under the riparian legal doctrine, as well as guidance on setting up a program of water withdrawal permit trading. Topics include: Øresource assessment and maintenance, Ødeveloping a water withdrawal regulatory program, Øbases for defining permits, Ømethods for allocating water among users, Øvoluntary permit transfers, and Øspecial groundwater issues. This volume will assist state, provincial, or national agencies to develop a program of water withdrawal regulations for maintaining minimum streamflow standards and to supplement such programs with permit trading for withdrawals that will minimize the economic impact of meeting streamflow standards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clean Water Act (CWA) requires that wetlands be protected from degradation because of their important ecological functions including maintenance of high water quality and provision of fish and wildlife habitat. However, this protection generally does not encompass riparian areasâ€"the lands bordering rivers and lakesâ€"even though they often provide the same functions as wetlands. Growing recognition of the similarities in wetland and riparian area functioning and the differences in their legal protection led the NRC in 1999 to undertake a study of riparian areas, which has culminated in Riparian Areas: Functioning and Strategies for Management. The report is intended to heighten awareness of riparian areas commensurate with their ecological and societal values. The primary conclusion is that, because riparian areas perform a disproportionate number of biological and physical functions on a unit area basis, restoration of riparian functions along America's waterbodies should be a national goal.
