South Carolina is blessed with an abundance of water, although its distribution is uneven across the state and from season to season. These disparities were made especially clear during a once-in-a-hundred-year drought lasting from June 1998 through December 2000, and still continuing in 2001. This study was undertaken to provide a current "snapshot" of the state's primary drought concerns, impacts, and mitigation and response measures., "May 2001."--Cover., "June 18, 2001.", Includes bibliographical references., Description based on online resource; title from PDF cover; (viewed July 2014), This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. CMS-0080977.
Increased coastal development, tremendous population growth, and high evacuation rates contributed to an evacuation that involved an unprecedented number of people, traffic problems, and level of public criticism., Kirstin Dow, Susan L.

This memo presents the results of a literature search conducted in May-June 2007 as a preliminary step toward the study of how climate change-induced variations in the hydrograph (i.e. earlier snowmelt and peak flows) may impact the temporal elements of water rights., by Heather M.

A core premise of state school report cards is that publicizing information about how well schools and districts meet specified goals will incentivize school improvement. However, for report card rating systems to be potentially beneficial as a school improvement policy instrument, they must provide fair and valid indicators of school performance., Gail L. Sunderman., "June 2022.", Includes bibliographical references, (pages 16-21)., Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed July 2022)
