Yet the Nation faces an increasing set of water resource challenges. Aging infrastructure, rapid population growth, depletion of groundwater resources, impaired water quality associated with particular land uses and covers, reservoir sedimentation, water needed for human and environmental uses, increased domestic energy development, and climate variability and change all play a role in determining the amount of fresh water available at any given place and time. It is increasingly recognized that water is the primary means through which climate change impacts the earth and people's livelihoods and well being. This book examines the WaterSMART initiative, a program that recognizes the U.S. Department of Interior's role in providing Federal leadership in the pursuit of sustainable water supply for people, the economy, and the environment. 410 0$aWater resource planning, development and management series. 517 3 $aWaterSmart program 606 $aWater conservation$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aWater resources development$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aWater-supply$xManagement$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 615 0$aWater conservation$xGovernment policy 615 0$aWater resources development$xGovernment policy 615 0$aWater-supply$xManagement$xGovernment policy 676 $a363.610973 701 $aOwens$b William$01864903 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957945603321 996 $aNational water sustainability$94471871 997 $aUNINA
