standards for selenium, molybdenum, boron, and salts in the San Joaquin River.... Independent discussions by state and local lawmakers concerning policies for reducing drain water have been ongoing since the
water quality standards were set by the State Water Resources Control Board. The uncoordinated manner in which the . . . problems have been considered suggests a strong potential for
the adoption of inefficient policies by the respective authorities" (Weinberg and Kling 64(14)). Under the theory, even if one problem was corrected successfully, the overall effect would be negligible
overall. Because of such theories, some believe that in order to meet new international requirements on water pollution or other environmental issues, a
governmental or private entity will have to consolidate laws to effect changes on a local level. This was accomplished by federal laws in the past, but such enforcement policies are
no longer valid, not only because states claim greater autonomy, but because the federal budget dictates a transfer of regulatory power to local governments. In addition, support rather than enforcement
is proving more workable. Under the theory, even if one problem was corrected successfully, the overall effect would be negligible overall. In practice, the theory falls apart. Problems and
Solutions The number of water pollution problems multiplied by the indefinite number of potential violators is nearly untraceable. This is because every person
in the world is a potential and actual water polluter. What is not known precisely is how and to what extent each person pollutes water because daily activities are not
