United States. Congress. House. Committe
This volume contains the official record of hearings held before the Committee and Subcommittee on Irrigation of Arid Lands of the House of Representatives during the Sixty-sixth Congress, first and second sessions, concerning the proposed legislation to assist in increasing agricultural productivity through the construction and management of the All-American Canal in Imperial County, California. These hearings document the discussions, testimonies, and debates surrounding the bill’s potential impact on water resources, land use, and regional development. The focus is on the feasibility and necessity of the canal in transforming arid lands into productive agricultural areas, making it a crucial resource for understanding the early 20th-century water management policies and agricultural development in the American West.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
