Notes:
This paper presents ten theses summarizing: The cyclic pattern of precipitation and runoff in the Central Valley of California and the need for cyclic storage to insure regularity and continuity in water supply; the inadequacy of surface-water storage because of evaporation losses and probable interference with ground-water recharge; the blasted hopes of Federal and State water agencies for control and management of the ground-water reservoir, because of potential conflict with private property rights; the artificial recharge by private and local enterprise; increasing emphasis in Federal and State programs upon surface reservoirs at increasing cost in money and water; the tendency of Federal policy to focus on the needs and clamors for irrigation water, with subsidies; and the availability of water from Federal projects now under construction for artificial recharge and subsurface storage, a first step to a long-range program of cyclic storage.
