This note compares institutional arrangements for water resources management in two river basins,namely,those of the Susquehanna River in the United States and the Yangtze River in China.The Susquehanna River Basin Commission is composed of the US federal government and the three states of New York,Pennsylvania,and Maryland through which the Susquehanna River passes.Under the authority of the Susquehanna River Basin Compact,the Commission deals with water resources problems throughout its vast drainage area.In contrast,the Changjiang(Yangtze River) Water Resources Commission(CWRC) lacks relative effectiveness in mobilizing provincial governments in transboundary water resources management.
