Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Manual of the United States Reclamation Service: Edition of 1913 This Manual is a revision of a preliminary edition issued under date of April, 1912, this being in turn a revision and collection of leaflets sent out for criticism during January and February, 1912. The present (1913) edition embodies the changes or corrections which have been suggested or made necessary by new enactments in the interval from the time of issue of the 1912 edition up to the end of January, 1913. The Manual is the result of the work of the Washington office force, revised and added to by constructive criticism received from scores of men actively engaged in field work. It embodies the substance of a large number of memoranda, circulars, service orders, and general instructions issued from time to time during the decade of growth and development of the Reclamation Service. Its arrangement has been dictated as far as practicable by considerations of convenience in referring to the subject matter, the principal topics being discussed in small groups and arranged in alphabetic order in accordance with the most prominent idea. Any manual of this kind is more or less ephemeral and must be modified at short intervals. It has, however, a definite object and value, not merely in securing greater uniformity in practice but also in enforcing efficiency and economy. It has further a certain legal status in pointing out the responsibility and duties of the various employees and from time to time is referred to as evidence of such authority. Under the President, among other heads of Departments, is the Secretary of the Interior, who by various statutes is entrusted with many duties and responsibilities. In the matter under consideration he is named as the responsible officer to execute the purposes of the Reclamation Act of June 17, 1902 (32 Stat., 388). He in turn organized the Reclamation Service on July 8, 1902, at first under the Director of the Geological Survey.
