Description:
Climate change is fundamentally altering where and when water is available, and federal policy must adapt to this new reality. Report analyzes ten areas of federal policy and examines how existing laws and regulations promote or fail to promote resilience to a more volatile and uncertain climate. Provides a policy roadmap for reforming existing policies and practices that make people and wildlife more vulnerable to floods, droughts, and other effects of climate change. These reforms will improve the reliability of water supplies, save money, benefit the environment, and provide communities with more flexibility to respond to climate change in the future.
