Abstract:
July 17, 1989 was the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Water Resources Research Act of 1964, which established the original fifty state water resources research institutes. The Water Resources Research Institute of the University of North Carolina began operating in 1965. Since then, the institute has responded to major water problems in the state through hundreds of water-related research projects and through support of graduate and undergraduate students.
