However, long before last summer, numerous local, state, and federal planning activities were underway to assess future water demands and to propose alternative solutions to meeting those demands. As a contribution to this planning and decision making process, a study was undertaken at Virginia Tech to assess the institutional impediments to implementation of the various proposed solutions and to document the costs of alternative solutions. Detailed findings will be available before mid-1978. This abbreviated preliminary report suggests that two limited-capacity water sources are potentially feasible interim water supply alternatives and should be considered in the planning process along with other alternatives for the region.7 pagesapplication/pdfen-USIn CopyrightTC1 .V5Water resources development -- VirginiaWater-supply -- VirginiaReporthttp://vwrrc.vt.edu/pdfs/specialreports/sr021978.pdf4631353
