Abstract

The key objective of the study is to analyze whether Rajasthan can achieve its economic growth targets with its available water resources and current water allocation pattern. In the above context, the study analyses the water use in agriculture, domestic and industrial(including power) sectors of Rajasthan. It identifies the water allocation patterns in different sectors and calculates the water intensity in each of these sectors. It brings out the constraints that the available water may pose towards achieving the economic growth targets of the State and suggests various strategic options and interventions that policy makers may consider to meet the economic growth target.

Abstract

The aim of this note is twofold: (1) summarize emerging challenges and opportunities for the water sector in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries; and (2) suggest ways to respond to these challenges where the World Bank's Water Global Practice can provide support. Following a description of the GCC's water resources and water service delivery challenges, two sets of recommendations and related actions are discussed. The first set relates to managing a diverse set of conventional and nonconventional water resources for security and sustainability. The second set of recommendations is linked to delivering better water services with accountability and financial sustainability.

Abstract

Prepared by the Water Regulatory Standards Committee of the Standards Development Council of the Environmental and Water Resources Institute (EWRI) of the American Society of Civil Engineers Regulated Riparian Model Water Code, ASCE/EWRI 40-18, provides a complete, comprehensive, and well-integrated statutory scheme for creating or refining a regulated riparian system of water law. This system uses a requirement of administrative permits for larger water uses, issued based on the well-established principles of riparian rights, to balance and coordinate those uses in times where demand is approaching or outstripping the available water. This standard addresses  allocation of water for particular uses and  coordination of water allocation processes with water quality regulatory processes. This standard covers declaration of policy; basic definition for the code; waters subject to allocation and those waters exempt from allocation; general administration authority, planning responsibilities, and coordination with other branches of government; enforcement and dispute resolution; establishing a water right, including the requirements of a permit and permit procedures; scope of the water right, including modifications and restriction during shortages; multijurisdictional transfers; and water conservation and supply augmentation. Standard ASCE/EWRI 40-18 provides engineers, attorneys, and government officials guidance on the allocation of water rights among competing interests and the resolution of quantitative conflicts over water.
