This article discusses sharing the abundant water resources of the Pacific Northwest (particularly Oregon) with other areas of the U.S. (particularly the Pacific Southwest). The article argues in favor of a united approach to solving these issues, and discusses a federal proposal for implementation of a coordinated effort for establishment of a national water commission to review water supplies and requirements on a national basis.
