From Water Development to Water Management
2000
BOWERSOX, JOE
This article examines the impact on the Department of Interior Bureau of Reclamation of changes in federal water quality policy by a citizen suit in Oregon. Having languished for most of the 1980s and early 1990s on the verge of termination, the Bureau has responded in unique and innovative ways to new mandates faced by Oregon and thus demonstrated its ability to move beyond water development to natural resource management and environmental stewardship. Despite significant reductions in force and budgetary constraints, the Bureau of Reclamation exemplifies a new model of agency cooperation with local policy initiatives in an era marked by regulatory devolution.
