<br> The great wealth of discussion of the history, responsibilities, problems, stakeholder issues, and basin commission success in meeting with the WFD is the strength of this book. I plan to keep this book as a reference and recommend it to people who serve on, study, oversee, or deal with river basin commissions. <br>--David E Agathe, Tucson AZ, Journal of The American Water Resources Association <br><p><br>
