Managing Climate-Induced Water Risks: A Case Study of Institutional Alternatives
This chapter analyses the institutional set up for water management in the Mahanadi river basin against the backdrop of current water uses in irrigation, industrial and domestic sectors and management challenges in the basin. The analysis is done for its effectiveness in ensuring sustainable water use, including resolving water conflicts between sectors and between states. A framework for analysing the effectiveness of water institutions as proposed by Saleth and Dinar (The institutional economics of water: a cross-country analysis of institutions and performance. The World Bank, 2004) and the institutional design principles for sound water resources management as proposed by Frederiksen (Institutional principles for sound management of water and related environmental resources. In: Asit K. Biwas (ed) Water resources: environmental planning, management, and development. McGraw-Hill company, 1997) are used for analysing the impact of institutional and policy framework related to water use and management. Based on the current water management challenges and the additional challenges that the basin is expected to face in future, institutional alternatives for water management are proposed.
