However, it cannot be compared with the renewable water resource of surface watercourses.

On this map, the colored areas represent water conflicts.

(e) Improving water resource management through a better understanding of water resources

Pressure on water resources due to increased crop intensity brings about increased water resource competition in areas where water resources are scarce.

Seizure of land and water

On the issue of shared water resources, several pilot areas (relating to surface water and groundwater resources) were studied to serve as models for reaching agreements on sharing resources and promoting joint technical and managerial cooperation among the riparian countries.

A project has been undertaken by the Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia to evaluate water resources (surface and ground water) in the region of south western Asia.

Freshwater Resources in Arid Lands

We have abundant natural resources land, water and energy.

(b) Hydrogeology Studying the fresh water sources along the Lebanese marine beach stretch.

On the other hand, the abundance of fossil fuel energy in some member countries has encouraged unsustainable production and consumption patterns that have an adverse impact on the environment.

Rational and effective use of energy and water resources in Central Asia

Fierce competition for a shrinking water resources base is resulting in over extraction for industry and agriculture, falling groundwater levels and failing domestic water sources.

123. His delegation believed that regional cooperation for management of water resources, in the context of a comprehensive policy framework, and the treatment of water as an economic and tradeable commodity, would improve the supply, management and consumption of freshwater resources in rural and urban areas.

The sustainable management of water and dry land resources is given particular attention in several reports.

Summary of the claims in the fifth F4 instalment 9

Fifth claim unit Monitoring of groundwater resources Iran seeks compensation in the amount of USD 1,056,000 for expenses of proposed measures to collect and analyse samples from springs, wells, qanats and rivers that have been damaged by contamination from the oil well fires in Kuwait.

44. To protect groundwater resources and prevent degradation due to over pumping or saltwater intrusion, the abstraction of water is regulated under the Water Authority Law of 1982 and its regulations of 1985.

In allocating groundwater resources, account should be taken of the amount of groundwater in reserve and of the rate of its replenishment.

Moreover, most water resources used in the Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) region, both surface water and groundwater, are shared by several riparian countries.

The fundamental life support systems were air, land resources, water, agricultural resources and a wholesome environment.

ESCWA also focused on the sustainable management of shared groundwater resources, especially in the many countries where groundwater is the main source of water.

(d) Size of the contingency fund expressed as a percentage of the overall level of resources

The development of groundwater resources and the establishment of two reservoirs in rural districts has also improved the supply.

The water in a recharging aquifer is a renewable resource and the water in a non recharging aquifer is a non renewable resource.

At the core of that principle were the critical resources of land, water, air and energy.

It was estimated that manufactured water resources, the keystone of sustainable water management for Israel and the region, would account for 55 per cent of water resources by the end of the decade.

In September 2004, the Symposium on Water for the World Space Solutions for Water Management was held in Graz, Austria.
