More than 30 million residents and 100 million visitors depend on the Great
Lakes for their business, drinking water, and recreation. As the amount
of available water becomes limited and the cost required to maintain the
high quality of water increases, how to allocate water resource to each
of those varying purposes becomes more important for improving the quality
of life.
It has been observed that serious conflicts can occur among different types of water use without carefully designed, intensive management programs. Through this and related sessions, we are going to address several topics regarding use of water for industry, drinking water, and recreation. |
