Abstract
Expanding water requirements for agricultural, municipal, and industrial uses in the U.S. have been met largely by developing surplus water. Reallocation of water, however, is becoming increasingly necessary, as readily available sources are depleted and surplus water becomes more expensive to develop. This article discusses the scope of the water problem in the U.S., and examines reallocation as a method of solving this problem.
