Workshop No. 1, 1973
Scope and Contents
The majority of the project files in the CWRRI collection were funded and overseen by the Office of Water Resources Research/Office of Water Research and Technology (OWRR/OWRT), the federal agency in charge of water resources research institutes. The Office of Water Resources Research (OWRR), part of the U.S. Department of the Interior, merged with the Office of Saline Water in 1974 and was renamed the Office of Water Research and Technology (OWRT). These acronyms were used interchangeably in the project files of this collection. These project files often had two files associated with a single project--a main project file and a publication file--linked by the same project number (not all projects had both files). Researchers can look for projects by searching for the project number, the researcher's name or the project title. It should be noted that OWRR/OWRT projects were usually published as ERC/CWRRI Completion Reports with the same or similar project titles. These can be found in the CSU Libraries' online catalog. The published completion reports usually reference the OWRR/OWRT project number. Files in this subseries generally contain research notes and publications, correspondence and budget information. For the sake of consistency OWRR/OWRT files such as annual fiscal reports, correspondence, workshops and miscellaneous information were filed in Series 1: Projects and proposals. The exceptions are OWRR/OWRT Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and OWRR/OWRT Water Resources Committee (WR) files that were specifically labeled as committees rather than projects by the office of origin. These are filed in Series 2: Conferences, committees, and commissions.
