Partners - United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR)

In occasion of IPTRID's Assistant Programme Manager mission in the United States of America in December 2004, the USBR office in Washington was visited in order to revise and strengthen the existing partnership. A request was made to the Bureau to assign some of their staff time to IPTRID activities. The level and nature of this contribution will depend on further discussions, to be continued in early 2005.

The USBR has nominated Mr Delbert Smith as the new IPTRID Coordinator, in replacement of Mr Rodney Tekrony who has just retired.

Role within IPTRID's activities:

WCA-infoNET: Information Service on Water Conservation and Use in Agriculture (on-going project)

WCA-infoNET is a global platform on water conservation and use in the agriculture sector: USBR is part of the international task force having the function of ensuring the technical reliability of the information included in the database.
