This 1966 New York State Water Resources Commission film presents New York State’s plans for better water resource management. It begins by introducing NYs different water resources on a map and with live footage. This is followed by work that is being done including flood protection, pollution prevention, reservoir construction, and prevention of water waste. It stresses the importance of water resource management for public well-being, by providing protection from flooding, and opening up economic and recreational opportunities. Official synopsis: The state is New York. The threats were basic -- stream pollution, lake degradation, spoilage of coastal waters, drought, flooding, misuse of related land resources. They affected municipal, industrial and agricultural supplies, fish and wildlife habitats, recreational use and aesthetic enjoyment. The problems began locally but were spreading and multiplying across the state. Expedient but uncoordinated programs by many agencies sometimes alleviated immediate problems without providing long range solutions. New York's imaginative answer is based on its Comprehensive Water Resources Program -- actually a carefully-devised group of complementary programs -- anchored in local community initiative, but with centralized, statewide coordination of planning and action at every level -- local, state and federal.
