Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY-NC 4.0 license. This revised, updated textbook presents a systems approach to the planning, management, and operation of water resources infrastructure in the environment. Previously published in 2005 by UNESCO and Deltares (Delft Hydraulics at the time), this new edition, written again with contributions from Jery R. Stedinger, Jozef P. M. Dijkman, and Monique T. Villars, is aimed equally at students and professionals. It introduces readers to the concept of viewing issues involving water resources as a system of multiple interacting components and scales. It offers guidelines for initiating and carrying out water resource system planning and management projects. It introduces alternative optimization, simulation, and statistical methods useful for project identification, design, siting, operation and evaluation and for studying post-planning issues. The authors cover both basin-wide and urban water issues and present ways of identifying and evaluating alternatives for addressing multiple-purpose and multi-objective water quantity and quality management challenges. Reinforced with cases studies, exercises, and media supplements throughout, the text is ideal for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in water resource planning and management as well as for practicing planners and engineers in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Resources Management Plan: Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve, Florida; November 1996 Because the preserve is largely a hydrological phenomenon (75% wetlands and open water), water-related issues naturally dominate. For that reason, land use within and adjacent to the preserve as well as land use anywhere in the watersheds, connected by either groundwater or surface water, has the potential to affect the preserve. For example, varied land use results in: (1) severe water pollution in many St. Johns River tributaries upstream of the preserve; (2) elevated metal concentrations in upstream sediments of the St. Johns River; (3) industrial effluent (especially from pulp and paper mills) input upstream of the preserve; (4) presence of several landfills adjacent to the preserve; (5) several sites targeted for cleanup by the u.s. Environmental Protection Agency's Superfund program; and, (6) a propensity for malfunctioning septic systems within and adjacent to the preserve. While information exists concerning the water resources in the preserve, systematically collected information and adequate analysis addressing the preserve's water resources is lacking. The primary purpose of this water resources management plan is to provide information on potential threats to water resources of the preserve and guidance on immediate actions that can prevent or mitigate water resource degradation. Management of preserve water resources must also involve coordination among the numerous and diverse landowners as well as participation from all stakeholders. Units of the national park system are not required to develop a water resources management plan. However, where water resource issues or management constraints are particularly numerous, complex, or controversial, a water resources management plan is useful in providing an identification and analysis of water-related information and issues, and presenting a coordinated action plan to address them. The water resources management plan is complementary to and consistent with the general management plan for the preserve. The water resources management plan is similar to the preserve's resources management plan, but includes a more thorough review of existing information, an in-depth analysis of water resources issues, and the development of an action plan to address them.

Book excerpt: In December 2002, a group of specialists on water resources from the United States and Iran met in Tunis, Tunisia, for an interacademy workshop on water resources management, conservation, and recycling. This was the fourth interacademy workshop on a variety of topics held in 2002, the first year of such workshops. Tunis was selected as the location for the workshop because the Tunisian experience in addressing water conservation issues was of interest to the participants from both the United States and Iran. This report includes the agenda for the workshop, all of the papers that were presented, and the list of site visits.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides the tools that allow companies to understand the fundamental concepts of water resource management and to take proper action towards sustainable development Businesses, communities, and ecosystems everywhere depend on clean freshwater to survive and prosper. When the same source of water is shared for economic, social, and environmental causes it becomes the responsibility of every sector to develop a sustainable water strategy beneficial for all. This book offers a water resource management plan for industries that is directly implementable and consistent with the Water Framework Directives of different countries with a special emphasis on developing countries—a plan that is economically efficient, socially equitable, and environmentally sustainable. Industrial Water Resource Management, Challenges and Opportunities for Efficient Water Stewardship offers explicit technical and investment solutions, socioeconomic and legal instruments, and recommendations for institutional restructuring. Written by a leading world expert in the field, it covers a wide range of topics including: ● Source water assessment and protection ● Water audit, industrial water footprint assessment—an evaluation of tools and methodologies ● Corporate water disclosure methods and tools ● Water stewardship by the industries ● Stakeholder collaboration and engagement ● New technologies enabling companies to better manage water resources Given the well-known challenge of managing natural resources in a way that maximizes and sustains social welfare, this book provides an invaluable point of reference for applied researchers and policy makers working in water resources management.
