The New Era of Water Resources Management:From "Dry" to "Wet" Water Savings

This paper addresses recent developments in the field of water resources that have substantial practical implications for water policies, programs, and projects. But as noted in Keller, Keller, and Seckler 1995, these concepts and their practical implications appear to be difficult for some professionals in the field to grasp--or, at least, to accept. This extended synopsis summarizes the logic of this argument in the hopes that the larger discussion will become clear.
