Groundwater Quality Protection Policies for the Rocky Mountain Region and the Nation

摘要

The report is a transcript of the Conference on Groundwater Quality Protection Policies for the Rocky Mountain Region and the Nation held in Denver, Colorado on January 18, 1986. The conference, and five others like it in other regions of the country, were held to provide input for a groundwater protection agenda for the U.S. Congress as it begins debate on new groundwater quality protection initiatives. The conference featured roundtable discussions among officials from the sponsoring organizations, local and state officials, environmentalists, corporate representatives, farm groups and others on groundwater protection needs and current programs in the region. Also considered were federal policy options, legislation and mechanisms to implement groundwater policies.
