| Abstract | We are pleased to present the proceedings of the Delaware Policy Forum titled Drought.02: A Debate and Panel Discussion Concerning Water Supply Policy in Delaware held on Wednesday October 9, 2002 at Clayton Hall on the University of Delaware campus in Newark, Delaware. The University of Delaware, Institute for Public Administration cosponsored this event with the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control and the University of Delaware Water Resources Center. In the midst of the record drought of 2002, invited panelists from government, private sector, and academia were asked to debate the pros and cons of issues concerning drinking water policy in Delaware. The panelists were asked to address the following question: In the wake of multi-year droughts in Delaware, what should be done to ensure the delivery of clean and plentiful drinking water to Delaware residents and businesses? Several speakers advocated a supply-side approach such as expanding existing reservoir capacity or building desalination plants. On the demand side, several speakers recommended water conservation practices through pricing controls. | |
