Abstract
The writer summarizers papers and presentations associated with the April 19-20, 1978 Southeast Conference on Legal and Administrative Systems for Water Allocation and Management held at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, Va. Conclusions and recommendations included the need for reexamination of existing legal and administrative systems for water allocation to meet emerging problems in most southeastern states; legislation to clarify water rights associated with diversion and interbasin transfer; recodification of existing water law; studies and proposals leading to improved state policies, law, and programs with respect to minimum streamflows, water shortages, hydrologic and land use relationships. Emphasis was also placed on the need for strengthened state water resources planning, management, and interstate cooperation.
