This is a report concerning some activities and accomplishments at Cornell University through the Water Supply-Demand Project from 1965 to 1969. Important research topics in 1966, 67 and 68 included 'The Allocation of Regional Water Supplies: A case study of the Northeastern United States,' 'The relationship between water shortages and pricing policies of water supply system,' and some subjects on the demand for water in the fields of irrigation and outdoor recreation. For the fiscal year 1969, the major research activity was a statistical analysis of regional variations in industrial water use in the United States to determine if there existed significant regional variations in industrial water use technology as measured by the ratio of water use to value added or water use to value of shipments.
