Sommario/riassunto |

The US Bureau of Reclamation is responsible for managing and operating some of the nation's largest and most critical dams. This book assesses Reclamation's security program and determines its level of preparedness to deter, respond to, and recover from malicious acts to its physical infrastructure and to the people who use and manage it. |
