Level "B" studies (regional or river basin plans) are conducted <br />in those areas identified by level "A" studies as having long -range and <br />interdisciplinary water and related land resource problems which are <br />so complex that an intermediate planning step is needed between the level <br />"A" and implementation level studies. These studies (1) focus on middle <br />term (15 to 25 years) needs and desires; (2) involve all Federal, State, <br />and local interests in the planning process; and (3) identify and recommend <br />action plans and programs to be implemented by individual Federal, State, <br />and local entities to meet the area's water and related land resource needs <br />and resolve the associated problems. <br />Level "C" studies (implementation level studies) consist of pro- <br />ject or program feasibility studies which are generally undertaken by a <br />single Federal, State, or local governmental entity for the purpose of <br />authorizing and developing plans to implement those findings, conclusions, <br />and recommendations of level "A" and level "B" studies which are needed <br />within the next 10 to 15 years. <br />Literature review comprises (1) locating and examining sources <br />of information on completed or ongoing studies and programs, (2) identi- <br />fying the sources of highest quality containing the most current informa- <br />tion for use by assessment participants, and (3) identifying problems <br />and associated assumptions on the basis of available information sources. <br />Nationwide adequacy analysis is the determination, including de- <br />velopment of supporting information, of the adequacy of water supply to <br />meet the requirements in any geographic unit, area, site, river, lake, <br />estuary, or marine area. From nationwide assumptions, this analysis <br />derives either numerical or narrative description indicators of the mag- <br />nitude of deficiencies. <br />Nonframework regions are water resource regions for which <br />level "A" framework studies have not been made. <br />OBERS is an acronym for t`ee set of nationally and regionally con-, <br />sistent projections of economic activity and agricultural production w':ich <br />will be used in the assessment. These projections are the joint product <br />of the Bureau of Economic Analysis (formerly Office of Business Economics <br />(OBE)), U.S. Department of Commerce, and the Economic Research <br />Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. <br />A Problem occurs whenever the water supply is deficient in any <br />v <br />
