Synopsis

This book offers readers an exhaustive examination of the investigations and discussions over crucial water system development choices in the San Francisco Bay Area from 1910 to 1913. As part of a special advisory board assembled by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the author analyzes potential water sources, their capacities, qualities, and potential development costs. These insights culminate in an overview of the available options for securing a reliable water supply for the region, making this book a significant contribution to understanding the history of water resource management, urban planning, and the political debates that shaped infrastructure development in the early 20th century.
