  • Federal Reclamation and Related Laws Annotated (Preliminary)
    FEDERAL RECLAMATION AND RELATED LAWS ANNOTATED (PRELIMINARY) UNITED STATES BUREAU OF RECLAMATION FEDERAL RECLAMATION AND RELATED LAWS ANNOTATED (PRELIMINARY) SUPPLEMENT II 1983-1998 SUPPLEMENT TO VOLUMES I-IV INDEX UNITED STATES BUREAU OF RECLAMATION John W. Keys, III, Commissioner Donald L. Walker Editor iii PREFACE The original three volumes of Federal Reclamation and Related Laws Annotated, published by the Department of the Interior in 1972, have proven to be an invaluable reference source for everyone interested in knowing the legal history of the Federal Reclamation program authorized by the Reclamation Act of 1902 and the related hydroelectric power marketing program that was transferred to the Department of Energy in 1977. In 1988, two additional volumes, Volume IV and Supplement I, brought that legal history up to date through 1982. These two volumes, Volume V and Supplement II, bring the legal history up to date through 1998. These two volumes do not include interpretative annotations concerned with solicitor opinions and court cases. For this reason, these two volumes are viewed as preliminary and, therefore, printed in paperback form, rather than hardback. These two volumes are a compilation of the Federal Reclamation laws and other statutes that directly affect the program responsibilities of the Bureau of Reclamation, power marketing agencies of the Department of Energy, and other selected statutes that relate to these programs. John W. Keys, III Commissioner, Bureau of Reclamation v FOREWORD This Supplement II to Volumes I, II, III, and IV, together with Volume V, updates Federal Reclamation and Related Laws Annotated through 1998. Supplement II contains amendments to laws included in the first four volumes.

Fortunately, my predecessor, Secretary Don Hodel, had come to realize that many new employees-I'm not sure he had Secretaries in mind-could profit from a good orientation to the Department and its many responsibilities. Secretary Hodel had commissioned the completion of a Department history, begun some 15 years earlier, so that newcomers and others interested in the Department could better understand what it is and how it got that way. This slim volume is the result.
