AWRBIAC as it exists. <br /> <br />2. River Basin Commission <br /> <br />3. Interstate Compact and Federal Interstate Compact <br /> <br />4. Multistate Limited Corporation <br /> <br />5. <br /> <br />AWRBIAC (Modified) Note: <br /> <br />Require Congress to legislatively <br /> <br />modify inter-agency committees. <br /> <br />The results of the study indicate that although there are problems of <br /> <br />a regional nature within certain areas of the AWR region, the problems <br /> <br />are being or can be largely resolved through existing programs and <br /> <br />institutions, including AWRBIAC as presently constituted. <br /> <br />In view of <br /> <br />the change in Administration and the uncertainty of future national <br /> <br />goals and objectives regarding comprehensive planning, as well as the <br /> <br />future of the Water Resources Council itself, AWRBIAC directed that <br /> <br />the Planning Process Study be concluded and the report transmitted to <br /> <br />the Water Resources Council. <br />
