Book Synopsis Preparing National Regulations for Water Resources Management by : Stefano Burchi
Download or read book Preparing National Regulations for Water Resources Management written by Stefano Burchi and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2003 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the pressure on finite resources of freshwater resources increases, government-administered legislation is taking a more dominant role in water resources management and protection. This manual is intended to bridge the gap between the policy and principles of the resultant primary legislation and implementation through secondary legislation. It covers a variety of legislative approaches cvoering all aspects of water resource management from water rights & permits, pollution prevention & control; conservation; flood control; irrigation; drainage and charging. It is an update of of the earlier FAO Legislative Study No. 52 (1994). Like its predecessor, it provides conceptual material for use in the preparation of national regulations for the management, development, use and protection of freshwater resources.

Book Synopsis Water Allocation Law in New Zealand by : Jagdeepkaur Singh-Ladhar
Download or read book Water Allocation Law in New Zealand written by Jagdeepkaur Singh-Ladhar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-17 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses water allocation law and policy in New Zealand and offers a comparative analysis with Australia. In New Zealand, it is generally accepted that water allocation law has failed to be adequately addressed and New Zealand is now faced with the problem of over-allocation in many catchments. In comparison, Australia has extensive experience in reforming its water law and policy over the last 20 years. This book provides a comparative and critical analysis of the lessons that New Zealand can learn from the Australian experience and offers guidance for the improvement of water allocation outcomes in New Zealand. Starting with the background of water allocation law and policy in New Zealand, the book traces the evolution of legal policies, including the 1967 Water and Soil Conservation Act and the 1991 Resource Management Act, and examines the role they have played in current water allocation issues. The book situates these findings within global challenges, such as the impact of climate change, and the global scarcity of and increasing demand for freshwater resources. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars researching water law and policy, natural resource management and environmental law more broadly. It will also be of use to policy makers and professionals involved in developing and implementing water allocation laws and policies.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication contains a consultation paper, draft Bill, explanatory notes and an impact assessment. The proposals in the draft Bill aim to give effect to: the Government's response to Sir Michael Pitt's review "Learning lessons from the 2007 floods" (http://archive.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/pittreview/thepittreview/final_report.html and http://www.defra.gov.uk/environ/fcd/floods07/Govtresptopitt.pdf); "Future water - the Government's water strategy for England (2008, Cm. 7319, ISBN 9780101731928); and to the flood and water aspects of the Welsh Assembly Government's "Environment strategy" and "Strategic policy position statement on water" (http://wales.gov.uk/topics/environmentcountryside). The proposals cover flood and coastal erosion risk management, including a strategic overview role for the Environment Agency and provision for a new local authority leadership role in local flood risk management. Other policies cover main river mapping, co-operation and sharing of information, sustainable drainage systems, Regional Flood Defence Committees, implementation of the EU Floods Directive and the Water Framework Directive, reservoir safety, surface water management plans and hosepipe bans. Two major independent reviews are also awaited: Martin Cave's review of competition and innovation in water markets and Anna Walker's review of charging and metering for household water and sewerage services. Their recommendations will have to be considered and could lead to further legislative proposals in this area.
Book Synopsis Managing Water Resources by : Slobodan P. Simonovic
Download or read book Managing Water Resources written by Slobodan P. Simonovic and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-23 with total page 681 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This book bridges disciplines, previously confined to specialist journal publications, by providing a comprehensive overview of the systems analysis application to water resources. It is ideal for Masters-level courses in Water Resources Engineering where modern management techniques of optimization and modelling are highly important in the strategic management of a vital resource.' - Derek Clarke, University of Southampton, UK 'The great novelty of this book is that it presents in detail how fuzzy-set theory can be used in water resource system management. The author was one of the pioneers who opened up this new field and is considered to be one of the greatest experts in it.' - Rodolfo Soncini Sessa, Politecnico di Milano, Italy Water resources management is increasingly interdisciplinary and must take into account complex socioeconomic factors and environmental variables. This book describes the 'systems approach' and its application to contemporary water resources management, focusing on three main sets of tools: simulation, optimization and multi-objective analysis. This approach is presented within the context of sustainable planning and development under conditions of uncertainty. Managing Water Resources: Methods and Tools for a Systems Approach introduces system dynamic simulation as a tool for integrated modelling and contains coverage of the use of fuzzy sets for incorporating objective and subjective uncertainties. The book combines theory with many practical examples, as well as including programs and exercises on downloadable resources. It comprises both an advanced text for students of water resources and civil or environmental engineering and a practical guide for professionals. Published jointly with UNESCO and International Hydrological Programme
Book Synopsis Water Resources Management in the People's Republic of China by : Xuetao Sun
Download or read book Water Resources Management in the People's Republic of China written by Xuetao Sun and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese water resource managers face a challenge that is both immense and unique. They must balance limited water supplies against the needs of the world’s largest population; demands for rapid economic growth with calls for improved environmental management; and the desire for a market-based approach to the allocation of water with a history of State ownership and strict government control of all resources. In China, changes are occurring in water resources management that are representative of many of the fundamental changes occurring within Chinese society, on issues such as property rights, community participation, improved environmental management, and the shift towards market-based decision making. This book describes the development of a water rights system in the People’s Republic of China. It covers different aspects of water resources management in China – including water planning, the provision of environmental flows, urban water management, and irrigation district management – and examines how these are being addressed through a rights-based approach. The book includes several detailed examples of the Chinese application of water rights as they address the diverse challenges of different basins across China. This book previously appeared as a special issue of the International Journal of Water Resources Development.
Book Synopsis Integrated Water Resources Management in the 21st Century: Revisiting the paradigm by : Pedro Martinez-Santos
Download or read book Integrated Water Resources Management in the 21st Century: Revisiting the paradigm written by Pedro Martinez-Santos and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-03-03 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated water resources management advocates a coordinated approach for managing water resources in a way that balances social and economic needs with concern for the environment. While potentially useful, integrated water management is also controversial. Supporters believe that the multi-dimensional nature of water can only be understood and managed from a holistic perspective, while critics often argue that integrated water management lacks suffi ciently well-defi ned rules for its practical implementation. This book, written by academics, users and practitioners, provides a down-to-earth approach to the ideal of integrated water resources management, drawing from conceptual frameworks and real-life practice to identify the key aspects that are yet to be resolved. As such, it examines the role of water accounting, food trade, environmental externalities and intangible values as key aspects whose consideration may help the water management community move forward. Overall, integrated water resources management is perceived to be a useful utopia, whose value lies more in the steps that need to be taken to make it a reality than in achieving its ever-elusive end goal.
Book Synopsis Australia's Water Resources by : John Pigram
Download or read book Australia's Water Resources written by John Pigram and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2007-05-25 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia’s Water Resources seeks to explore the circumstances underpinning the profound reorientation of attitudes and relationships to water that has taken place in Australia in recent decades. The changing emphasis from development to management of water resources continues to evolve and is reflected in a series of public policy initiatives directed towards rational, efficient and sustainable use of the nation's water. Australia is now recognised as a pacesetter in water reform. Administrative restructuring, water pricing, water markets and trade, integrated water resources management, and the emergence of the private sector, are features of a more economically sound and environmentally compatible water industry. It is important that these changes are documented and their rationale and effectiveness explained. This timely work provides an important synthesis of these issues. This revised paperback edition is a fully corrected reprint of the hardback edition.
Book Synopsis Water Rights Reform by : Bryan Randolph Bruns
Download or read book Water Rights Reform written by Bryan Randolph Bruns and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Rights to water are increasingly crucial and increasingly contested across theglobe. Urbanization, industrialization, environmental degradation, agriculturalintensification, rising per capita water use, increasing population, andother social, political, and economic transformations contribute to growing scarcity and demand for better management of water resources. In responding to these challenges, the world can draw on a rich heritage of institutions for regulating rights to water and resolving disputes, and a diversity of institutional arrangements that demonstrate great ingenuity in designing solutions to fit the conditions and priorities of various river basins. However, policy discussion in water management has often been impoverished by narrow polarization around a few idealized models of centrally integrated management or water commoditization, even though these comprise only a small and very incomplete subset of the institutional options available for effective management. The authors in this book expand the range of reflection and analysis of water rights reforms, offering insights aimed especially at those seeking practical pathways to improve equity, efficiency, and sustainability in access to water."
