Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive study on the agricultural drainage and drainage-related problems of the westside San Joaquin Valley, California.

The plan outlined by the author provides insight into potential solutions, including source control, drainage reuse, evaporation systems, land retirement, ground-water management, and discharge to the San Joaquin River. The book also explores the institutional changes and additional study and monitoring that are recommended as part of the plan. The author's goal is to present a framework that will permit the present level of agricultural development in the valley to continue while also protecting fish and wildlife and restoring their habitat to pre-contamination levels.
