Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a proposed major development project on the American River, exploring its potential for hydroelectric power generation, flood control, salinity control, and irrigation. The author analyzes the project's feasibility and economic viability, examining the tradeoffs between various uses of the river's water resources. Situated within the broader context of California's water resource development in the early 20th century, the book highlights the growing need for a coordinated approach to managing water resources for multiple uses, a challenge that remains relevant today. Thematic depth is achieved through the author's comprehensive study of the project's various facets, including detailed analysis of the water supply, reservoir capacities, power output, and the impact of different operational schemes on the river's ecosystem. The book offers a detailed exploration of the project's potential benefits and drawbacks, ultimately contributing a valuable case study to the understanding of water resource management during a period of significant economic and population growth in California.
