Abstract Philadelphia is in competition with New York City and Baltimore in staking a claim for the water resources it will need in the next half century and beyond. A new governmental organization having a delegation of both state and federal powers for continuous planning and for unified management and control of the water resources of the entire Delaware River Basin has been proposed; and a federal-state compact for its establishment is being negotiated.
