520 2  "In northwestern Nevada, the waters of the Truckee, Carson,
       and Walker river systems are fought over by competing 
       interests: agriculture, industry, Native Americans and 
       newer residents, and environmentalists. Much of the 
       conflict was caused by the Newlands Project, completed in 
       1915, the earliest federal water reclamation scheme. 
       Diverting these waters destroyed vital wetlands, polluted 
       groundwater, nearly annihilated the cui-ui and the 
       Lahontan cutthroat trout, and threatened the existence of 
       Pyramid Lake. Water Politics in Northern Nevada examines 
       the Newlands Project, its unintended consequences, and 
       decades of litigation over the abatement of these problems
       and fair allocation of water. Negotiations and federal 
       legislation brought about the Truckee River Operating 
       Agreement in 2008. This revised edition brings the reader 
       up to date on the implementation of the agreement, 
       including ongoing efforts to preserve and enhance Pyramid 
       Lake. The second edition now also includes a discussion of
       the Walker River basin, following a major project 
       undertaken to address concerns about the health and 
       viability of Walker Lake. The approaches taken to save 
       these two desert treasures, Pyramid Lake and Walker Lake, 
       are offered as models for resolving similar water-resource
       conflicts in the West. Leah J. Wilds's study is crucial 
       reading for students and scholars of water politics and 
       environmental issues, not just in Nevada but throughout 
       the western United States"--|cProvided by publisher. 
520 2  "This book is a political history of conflict over water 
       resources in northwestern Nevada and an analysis of 
       regional approaches to resolving those conflicts. The 
       waters discussed are conveyed by the Truckee, Carson, and 
       Walker river systems. The use, allocation, and ownership 
       of these waters have long been the subject of legislation 
       and litigation. The first edition of Water Politics in 
       Northern Nevada, published in 2010, dealt with water 
       policy and legislation concerning the Truckee and Carson 
       River water systems. This revised edition brings the 
       reader up-to-date on the implementation of the 2008 
       Truckee River Operating Agreement, including ongoing 
       efforts to preserve and enhance Pyramid Lake. The second 
       edition now also includes a discussion of the Walker River
       Basin, following a major project undertaken to address 
       concerns about the health and viability of Walker Lake. 
       The approaches taken to save these two desert treasures 
       are offered as models for resolving similar water 
       resources conflicts in the West"--|cProvided by publisher.
