Abstract:
The drought of 1988 has demonstrated the need for water policy development at all levels of government. A recent survey study by Dr. David H. Moreau, director of the Water Resources Research Institute at the University of North Carolina, indicates that at the local level, where first-line response to drought conditions must be taken, there is a need for improving the state of preparedness of water utilities to deal with the effects of drought.
