Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1913, is the twelfth annual report of the U.S. Reclamation Service, covering the advances and challenges in federally funded irrigation projects in the arid western United States. It provides a detailed account of the agency's activities over the past year, including surveys, dam and canal construction, and the distribution of water. The report delves into the technical aspects of irrigation engineering, such as dam design and canal seepage, as well as the human dimensions of water management, such as land settlement, crop selection, drainage issues, and the evolving relationship between water users and the government. It also includes reports on the progress of individual projects, providing valuable insights into the physical and social challenges of irrigating the arid lands of the western United States at the beginning of the 20th century. By combining technical expertise with a deep understanding of the human dimensions of water management, this report offers a unique perspective on the complexities and rewards of large-scale irrigation projects.
