Is Congress Protecting Our Water? The Controversy Over Section 404, Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments Of 1972, Lee Evan Caplin

University of Miami Law Review

In 1976 both Houses of the 94th Congress passed amendments to section 404 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. However, the Joint Committee of the House and Senate was unable to write a compromise amendment, leaving the issue to be resolved during the present Congress. The author discusses the environmental interests and political forces which led to the deadlock, and presents the merits of the various proposals which were considered. Moreover, by analyzing the competing economic and ecological policies, the author suggests a course of action for the 95th Congress to take in its re-evaluation of the section 404 …

Agricultural Development In The North Kimberley : Terms, Conditions And Farm Size Recommendations, D G. Wilcox, J Ripley, R F. Johnson

Resource management technical reports

There are approximately 1,250,000 hectares of land in this area of Kimberley which may be sown to pastures such as Townsville Stylo, other Stylosanthes species or to other introduced pastures. The report recommends that grazing properties comprising 10,000 ha. of land capable of growing improved pastures, together with 60,000 ha. of native pasture land, should be established in the area. The economic size of the farm unit is 5,300 adult cattle equivalents.

Bulletin No 3993 - The Control Of Saffron Thistle, G. A. Pearce

Bulletins - 3000 - 3999

Saffron thistle is a primary noxious weed and is widespread throughout the drier parts of Western Australia. When growing in pasture its prickly growth habit discourages animals from grazing amongst it so that its presence results in the loss of feed. In crops it reduces yield and results in dockage when seed is found in harvested grain.

Faculty Honor Lectures

Throughout most of this century Utah State University has been developing its competence to a position of eminence in the science and art of irrigation and related fields of agriculture and engineering. It has accepted the responsibility to train local as well as international students and through a contract with USAID, conduct research in developing countries. Thus, we in irrigation find ourselves an integral part of the U.S. strategy to assist in closing the gap in development and hopefully winning the battle against world famine. To many this seems hopeless, and it may be, but I have a feeling that …

Creating A Northern Agriculture. V. An Agroeuthenics Approach To Development In Alaska., Wayne E. Burton

Bulletin

The growing national concern for a better environment and more rewarding life-style is being reflected in the many proposals regarding Alaska's future. Particular attention has been directed to preserving wilderness, wildlife, and scenic values. Increasing attention is being directed to energy resource development. Continuing attention is being directed to fishery, forestry, and recreation resources. All incorporate concern for certain attributes of a more rewarding life-style. However, little attention is being directed to development concepts, or infrastructures, suited to Alaska's latent agricultural regions, and even less has been directed to the inter-relationships of rural-agricultural and urban-industrial developments.

Creating A Northern Agriculture. Iv. Reservation And Preservation Of Agricultural Lands In Alaska, Wayne E. Burton

Bulletin

The reservation of agricultural lands is one of the most urgent, and least recognized, problems facing Alaskans today. While more than 17 million acres suitable for agricultural tillage have been identified, fewer than 20,000 acres, in widely scattered locations, are now being tilled and they are increasingly suffering the ravages of suburban, urban, and industrial encroachment. Most lands suitable for agricultural tillage in the future, and all lands suited to domestic livestock grazing, are now in public ownership and control; yet public land use plans do not include agricultural production1 as a consideration for the future in Alaska.

Ec76-1741 Christmas Trees: A Management Guide, Donald E. Janssen, Neal E. Jennings

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

In America the decorated Christmas tree has become an accepted tradition. Christmas would seem barren to most people without it. Raising Christmas trees is a growing industry and has proven to be a profitable use of land if high-quality, salable trees are produced.

Planting, managing, and harvesting Christmas trees is a high labor, high risk endeavor. Here is a list of questions. If you can answer "yes" to every one, you will be a successful Christmas tree grower.

Are you willing to plant trees every April?

Are you willing to shear or prune every tree, every year (mid-June to mid-July) …

Creating A Northern Agriculture. Iii. Defining Parameters Of Agricultural Potential In Alaska, Wayne E. Burton

Bulletin

Alaska's current land-use planning is characterized by a particular void in providing for future agricultural development. One reason for this void in planning has been a profound lack in identification of production possibilities in most areas of the state. While the report, ALASKA'S AGRICULTURAL POTENTIAL (4), generally identified some 16 million acres suitable for tillage, and millions of acres suitable for livestock grazing, it did not provide other than a cursory review of product types which might be grown in Alaska. Further, it did not identify probable locations where particular crops and livestock would be produced, nor possible scope and …

Creating A Northern Agriculture. Ii. Historical Perspectives In Alaskan Agriculture, Wayne E. Burton

Bulletin

Much can be learned about the present status of agriculture in Alaska from a review of the long and varied history of Alaskan agriculture. At some times, concerted public efforts have been directed to its development; at others, agriculture has suffered long periods of public neglect. At national levels, opinion has vacillated from limited optimism to abject negativism. However, correlations may be found among the public policy attitudes and agricultural development success.
