<br />O[J32S~ <br /> <br />" <br /> <br />river systems, it is difficult to imagine a lack of federal interest in the <br /> <br /> <br />outcome sufficient to constitute a "waiver of consent." It should probably not <br /> <br /> <br />therefore be assumed unless previously stated by congressional action (such as <br /> <br /> <br />the unsolicited consent of Congress to a certain class or type of interstate <br /> <br /> <br />compact in general). <br /> <br />.' <br /> <br />Ability to Resolve River Basin Issues <br /> <br />The previously-referenced study of the interstate compact as a mechanism <br /> <br /> <br />for resolving multi-state, regional river basin water problems concluded that it <br /> <br /> <br />was the" . . . optimum permanent institutional approach. . ." (Muys, 1973, p. <br /> <br /> <br />163). Specifically, the study concluded the compact variation with both state <br /> <br /> <br />and federal signatories was the best mechanism. At the time, Muys found the <br /> <br /> <br />interstate compact quite successful in dealing with issues of water allocation, <br /> <br /> <br />flood control, and comprehensive planning-regulation-project development. <br /> <br /> <br />However, he concluded that then current interstate compact arrangements for <br /> <br /> <br />water quality control were as inadequate as other methods of the times. <br /> <br />, <br /> <br />Muys' conclusion that the federal-interstate compact with both state and <br /> <br /> <br />federal signatories performed quite well in multi-state river basin comprehensive <br /> <br /> <br />planning, regulation and project development was based primarily on his study of <br /> <br /> <br />the Delaware River Basin Commission, formed by federal-interstate compact in <br /> <br /> <br />1961. The DRBC emerged from a long period of litigation among its basin <br /> <br /> <br />states regarding the apportionment of the river's water and unsuccessful <br /> <br /> <br />attempts to achieve apportionment through interstate compact (Supra, p. 10). <br /> <br /> <br />When agreement was reached among the states, it was agreement that river <br /> <br />-21- <br />
