Abstract:
Regulating and supplying water to the state's citizens falls to state and local government which faced decreased federal support in the early 1980s. Lacking thorough information about the 500 municipally owned water systems, the author proposed a more detailed study of these systems to better inform future development. Mr. Moreau further suggests more state government involvement intended to give local government more capabilities for managing and planning specific water supplies.
