- Title
New Horizons in Water Resources Administration.
- Authors
Fox, Irving K.
- Abstract
From the time of tile first Hoover Commission to the present, water resources administration has benefited from the application of economic analysis and intergovernmental innovation. The author reviews welfare economics theory, water resource investment problems, and the "policy-institutional framework" in which decisions are made. He concludes that technical economic progress has surpassed that on the administrative side, and suggests new organizational arrangements for deciding and implementing governmental policy for water resources.
