Book excerpt: Excerpt from Watershed Management Problems in the Northern Rocky Mountain Region It also contains large areas of range land where many livestock and big game animals graze. The method of managing these forests and ranges can have far reaching effects upon the condition of the vegetation and soil, and, hence, upon the quality, amount, and rate of water delivered to creeks and rivers. Since 1905, when the national forest systefi was created, methods of managing the timber and forage resources have been improved. Most of these improvements were developed mainly in the interest of better production of timber and forage. Few were directed specifically at betterment of watershed conditions although some have effected improvement incidentally. Management problems concerning the influence of various resource use activities on water and soil continue to arise. Some of these problems involve methods of main taining effective control of water and soil movement under continued timber harvesting, grazing, and recreational uses. Others are concerned with re storing control over water and soil on watersheds where it has been lost through overuse, abuse, or some catastrophe such as wildfire. Still others involve the management of timber and forage resources to improve water yielding characteristics of watersheds, especially the amount and quality of water and the time of year when it appears as streamflow.

Book excerpt: “Wonderfully written…Mr. Owen writes about water, but in these polarized times the lessons he shares spill into other arenas. The world of water rights and wrongs along the Colorado River offers hope for other problems.” —Wall Street Journal An eye-opening account of where our water comes from and where it all goes. The Colorado River is an essential resource for a surprisingly large part of the United States, and every gallon that flows down it is owned or claimed by someone. David Owen traces all that water from the Colorado’s headwaters to its parched terminus, once a verdant wetland but now a million-acre desert. He takes readers on an adventure downriver, along a labyrinth of waterways, reservoirs, power plants, farms, fracking sites, ghost towns, and RV parks, to the spot near the U.S.–Mexico border where the river runs dry. Water problems in the western United States can seem tantalizingly easy to solve: just turn off the fountains at the Bellagio, stop selling hay to China, ban golf, cut down the almond trees, and kill all the lawyers. But a closer look reveals a vast man-made ecosystem that is far more complex and more interesting than the headlines let on. The story Owen tells in Where the Water Goes is crucial to our future: how a patchwork of engineering marvels, byzantine legal agreements, aging infrastructure, and neighborly cooperation enables life to flourish in the desert—and the disastrous consequences we face when any part of this tenuous system fails.

Download or read book Colorado Water Law for Non Lawyers written by P. Andrew Jones and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2009-04-30 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do people fight about water rights? Who decides how much water can be used by a city or irrigator? Does the federal government get involved in state water issues? Why is water in Colorado so controversial? These questions, and others like them, are addressed in Colorado Water Law for Non-Lawyers. This concise and understandable treatment of the complex web of Colorado water laws is the first book of its kind. Legal issues related to water rights in Colorado first surfaced during the gold mining era in the 1800s and continue to be contentious today with the explosive population growth of the twenty-first century. Drawing on geography and history, the authors explore the flashpoints and water wars that have shaped Colorado’s present system of water allocation and management. They also address how this system, developed in the mid-1800s, is standing up to current tests—including the drought of the past decade and the competing interests for scarce water resources—and predict how it will stand up to new demands in the future. This book will appeal to at students, non-lawyers involved with water issues, and general readers interested in Colorado’s complex water rights law.
