This handbook is designed to provide a summary of the principal federal and state (Florida) laws that directly or indirectly relate to agriculture. Because these laws are subject to constant revision, portions of the handbook could become outdated at any time. The reader should use it as a means to determine areas in which to seek more information and as a brief directory of agencies that can help answer more specific questions.

This handbook is designed to provide an accurate, current, and authoritative summary of the principle Federal and Florida laws that directly or indirectly relate to agriculture. This handbook should provide a basic overview of the many rights and responsibilities that farmers and farmland owners have under both Federal and Florida laws as well as the appropriate contact information to obtain more detailed information. However, the reader should be aware that because the laws, administrative rulings, and court decisions on which this handbook is based are subject to constant revision, portions of this publication could become outdated at anytime. Several details of cited laws are also left out due to space limitations. This document is FE608, one of a series of the Food and Resource Economics Department, UF/IFAS Extension. Published December 2005.

Three colored surface water nanofiltration pilot-scale projects were conducted in the province of Quebec (eastern Canada), between November 2000 and March 2002, by the company H2O Innovation (2000) inc., for the municipalities of Lac Bouchette, Latulipe-et-Gaboury and Charlesbourg (now part of Quebec City). Results indicated that nanofiltration permeate quality has an advance on present drinking water regulation standard in Quebec, but important membrane fouling occurred. Fouling can be controlled by pretreatment and optimization of the operating conditions.

Este  artigo  explora as  contradições do  novo modelo institucional no  Brasil, cuja  implementação vem  provocando mudanças significativas na  posição  dos municípios no  que diz  respeito ao controle dos serviços de  água e saneamento. A partir  da  Lei 9.433197,  analisa-se as  adaptações  dos municípios  ao  novo  quadro  institucional. Argumenta-se que as mudanças propostas não garantem a competitividade na indústria de água e saneamento, pressuposto dos marcos regulatórios vigentes.Abstract:This paper explores  the contradictions in  the new model  of the water regulation  in Brazil, which  result  in a reconfiguration of  the position of  the municipalities  in the water  industry. We  briefly outline the main  changes introduced by  the 9433 Law  (Water Law) and  analyze how the municipalities are adjusting  themselves  to  this new order. The changes  in  the  Rio  de  Janeiro water  industry provide  an  example  in  which  institutional shifts are no guarantees  to produce competitiveness in  the water industry.

This chapter focuses on legal instruments that take a broad view of water regulation. There are, as yet, no framework statutory instruments at the state or Union level but drafts have been prepared and this chapter reproduces the latest draft National Water Framework Bill. The next section then moves on to water policies that have been adopted at the Union and state level for some years, highlighting here the National Water Policy, 2012. The last section focuses on an upcoming area of water law, inter-sectoral allocation of water, an issue that is not yet well covered in legal instruments. This section highlights some state-level instruments that seek to address the issue.
