Description

The present Bulletin presents a complete response from the 'Technical Committee of ICOLD on Dams and Water Transfer (CDWT)' to the Terms of Reference. It starts with related global information, brings out related efforts made in countries with completely differing climate, economy, population distribution etc. about present status within and between river basins & countries - both surplus and or deficit, while recognizing the crucial role played by dams in water transfer to needy regions. It then enumerates guidelines followed in considering various options, while identifying geographical issues, limited by political territories & legal issues like water treaties. Essentially then, it dwells on possible need, potential and problems in water transfers that must be handled to overcome B/C issues faced by needy countries. In order to assist concerned professionals, the Bulletin finally elaborates on objections raised by different stake-holders in the subject and provides answers generated globally. The on-going debate world-over about WRD versus environmental impacts is then dealt with to help Member-countries overcome various issues. Le present Bulletin presente une reponse complete du " Comite Technique sur les barrages et les transferts d'eau ". Il commence par des informations mondiales, fait ressortir les efforts deployes dans des pays au climat, a l'economie, a la repartition de la population, etc. completement differents sur l'etat actuel au sein et entre les bassins fluviaux et les pays - a la fois excedentaire et / ou deficitaire, tout en reconnaissant le role crucial joue par les barrages dans le transfert d'eau vers les regions necessiteuses. Il enumere ensuite les lignes directrices suivies pour considerer diverses options, tout en identifiant les problemes geographiques, limites par les territoires politiques et les questions juridiques comme les traites sur l'eau. Essentiellement, il s'attarde donc sur les besoins, le potentiel et les problemes possibles des transferts d'eau qui doivent etre traites pour surmonter les problemes auxquels sont confrontes les pays dans le besoin. Afin d'aider les professionnels concernes, le Bulletin elabore enfin les objections soulevees par les differents acteurs du sujet et apporte des reponses generees globalement. Le debat en cours dans le monde entier par rapport aux impacts environnementaux est ensuite traite pour aider les pays membres a surmonter divers problemes.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
