Interstate basin commission administration files, [ca. 1948-1975] (bulk 1957-1975).

The series documents New York's participation in several interstate sanitary and water pollution control commissions. The commissions were formed to formulate policies and programs for development of watershed resources; to promote the orderly and integrated development and conservation of water resources; and to prevent, abate, and control water pollution and to regulate the disposal of wastes in interstate river drainage basins. The files include correspondence, memoranda, minutes of meetings and hearings, transcripts, analytical data, and investigation studies. Maps, diagrams, and some photographs are also present, most often in copies of commission reports, promotional literature, or special research projects.
