Kind of a general book describing water management, I feel you can get the information online with simple google searches, not really worth buying as it doesn't have any detail plans or anything special, is ok for the basic descriptions but if I would have known it was so generalized I wouldn't have bought it.

Bob Boulware is a know authority in the books topic. A must read for any engineer in the field or the interested layman.I highly recommend
