Instream resource values and protection needs in Canada / by C.T. Hatfield and G. Smith. : En36-519/22E-PDF

"Instream water resource uses are defined as the uses of water in place in lake, stream and estuary systems, as compared to offstream uses, taken out of the natural system. Instream uses include the environmental uses of providing habitat for fish and water-associated birds and mammals, as well as human uses that range from recreation and aesthetics enjoyment to pollution control and transportation. Conflicts are occurring over the use of water resources for different needs. Typically, the geographic scope of conflicts is confined within specific stream basins, but interbasin conflicts are also becoming common"--Abstract.
