This book, published in 1982, delves into California's water management plans and discusses the need for additional water supplies for the State Water Project. California's dependable water supply is estimated to decrease from 4.5 to 4 million acre-feet per year by the year 2000, resulting in potential water shortages. To prepare for this, the author explores various water conservation, augmentation, and reclamation techniques. They propose combining ground and surface water storage, increased reuse of available supplies through waste water treatment and agricultural wastewater desalination, expansion of surface water regulation, and intensity of study for both offstream and onstream storage facilities. The author sees water conservation and reclamation as the most viable measures to protect the environment and meet increasing water demands in areas relying on the Delta for a portion of their water supply.
