Abstract

The four cases of cross-border management of water resource reviewed in this chapter include the Northwest Atlantic ground-fishery, the Columbia River anadromous fishery, the Colorado River Compact water allocation system, and the Great Lakes Commission and Compact. They illustrate the associated problems with cross-border governmental resource management. Among other lessons, they show that effectiveness relies on the “good will” of the negotiators as well as the pursuit of the principles reviewed in previous chapters.
