Assimilative capacity and water resource management: Four examples from the United States
AbstractThe concept of environmental thresholds has been advocated as a means of assessing the assimilative capacity of an ecosystem to withstand human intervention. Use of the environmental threshold concept in various environmental management processes and techniques is generally founded on the concept's theoretical message of “limitedness”, providing an essential framework for the subsequent design of appropriate environmental standards and land-use regulations. The experience of four regions in the U.S.A. with the application of the threshold concept in water resource management is analyzed. The four case study regions include: the New Jersey Pinelands, the Lake Tahoe Basin of Nevada and California, the Texas Edwards Aquifer, and the Spokane-Rathdrum Aquifer of Washington and Idaho.
