Water Supply Economics in the Potomac River Basin
This article discusses a proposal released in February of 1963 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for a $500 million system of water storage projects in the Potomac River Basin. Topics discussed include: the impact of alternative pricing policies on the nature and solution of the anticipated water supply problems and the resulting implications for economic efficiency; questions concerning the best regional plan for outdoor recreation that stem from the plan's major investment in recreation facilities; the cost of meeting water quality standards related to low flow augmentation; the inadequate state of technical resources to deal with water quality issues and water resources planning; and, uncertainty about how modifying the current standard might affect the costs and benefits of quality improvement programs.
