Contending water uses: biodiversity vs irrigation: case of Keolaeo National Park - 2006 - p.575-77. - 16 Feb
The conflict over the use of the waters of the Panchna dam for the Keolaedeo National Park, in which upstream farmers in the command area of the dam have staged protests, is about rapidly decreasing water supply amidst a growing number of users. There is a need to increase the quantity of available water, though the government's plan to supply chemically- related drinking water to the park, as a part of a larger scheme, will condemn millions of fish, invertebrates and amphibian young to oblivion. - Reproduced.
