dc.description.abstract"The thesis of this paper is that our focus on coordination and planning has led to repeated failures to allocate water resources in the Columbia River Basin to their highest-valued uses, although there are limited examples of agencies beginning to rely on contractual understandings and trade-offs. These new understandings and the example of withdrawal rights exercized by irrigation districts can be expanded in the direction of market-based mechanisms."en_US
