Conference organizers and/or faculty included University of Colorado School of Law professors Betsy Rieke, David H. Getches, Michael A. Gheleta and Charles F. Wilkinson.

All across the country--in Congress, in state legislatures and in urban and rural communities--people are discussing why we should or should not protect biodiversity and how best to do so. Since the Endangered Species Act is up for reauthorization, a variety of reform proposals are being debated. Speakers--including natural resource scholars, experts from the private and nonprofit sectors, and government officials--will examine the rationale for biodiversity protection, the legal framework of the Endangered Species Act, and …

Irrigation, Power, And Salmon: The Case For Voluntary Water Transfers In The Columbia Basin, Eric Kuhner

Center for Urban Studies Publications and Reports

This paper begins with a brief history of water law in the west, illustrating the roots of conflict over water allocation. A more detailed examination of activities in the Columbia Basin follows, describing the many parties affected by issues of water use and the overlapping institutional structures that govern the river and its water.

Sources of pressure to change the current pattern of water use are then considered. These include requirements to protect endangered salmon runs and the change over time in the relative values of water for power production and irrigation. This section demonstrates how changes in the value …

The Snakes Of The Taunton Local Fauna (Pliocene: Mid-Blancan) Of Adams County, Washington, Donald Edward Walker Ii

Biology Theses

The Taunton local fauna is located in Adams county Washington and is Blancan in age (2.85-2.95 ma). This site yielded three hundred sixty-five fossil snake vertebrae. Of these, one hundred ninety-nine were identifiable to genus and twenty-one were identifiable to species. Analysis of the Taunton's ophidian faunal composition provides two notable accounts in attempting to reconstruct Blancan snake faunas. First, is the occurrence of the fox snake, Elaphe vulpina. This is the only account of this species in the Pacific Northwest. This is important since the fox snake's present range is restricted to the upper Midwest United States. Second, …

A total of twenty-six specimens representing six species of mammals was collected. The majority of specimens collected were long-tailed shrews.Each specimen was deposited in the Natural History Museum at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

Small Mammal Diversity In Grassy Habitats Of The Tennessee River Gorge, Nancy Monteith

Honors Theses

A survey of small mammal diversity in grassy habitats of the Tennessee River Gorge was conducted from February 20, 1995 to July 27, 1995. The purpose of the study was to provide new information on the biogeographical distribution of small mammals in southeastern Tennessee and to aid the Tennessee River Gorge Trust in its effort to have the gorge designated as a Biosphere Reserve. A total of 122 mammals representing ten species were collected from four different sites in the gorge. As a result of this study, new information was obtained that requires a range extension for the southern short-tailed …
