Integrated water management in urban areas / by J. Marsalek.En13-5/88-09E-PDF

"The concept of integrated water management is not commonly applied in urban areas unless there are severe conflicts among the users competing for limited water resources. Integration of water management in urban areas is frequently impeded by functional and jurisdictional fragmentation and the past tendencies of monopolizing water resources by urban demands. To improve this situation, a systems approach to water management, with an emphasis on conservation, should be adopted and implemented by regional water authorities with representation of all water users. Increasing utilization of limited water resources should lead to a greater acceptance and implementation of the integrated water management in urban areas"--Abstract.
