Water Management

2. Water management is
Refers to the process (process) water management, which typically involves the provision and development. Allocation and use
For different purposes As well as the conservation and restoration of water resources and to remain there longer used.
The problems arising from both the quantity and quality of water resources for water management, which is gone ....
We always said that water management is a must. "Integrated management" or "sustainable water management."
The principle, however, Can explain Water management either. On one side, or stand-alone.

Can not solve the problem The main action will be in line incorporating an integrated unity as called.
"Integration" with several techniques. People in all communities and social acceptance. It would lead to a deal or solve problems.
The water has relevance in the current situation, we must manage and use water resources. The way of thinking and operating.
Many aspects of the system as a whole. See events that might happen and then find solutions as a fully integrated system.
Everything must be seen as a dynamic dimension that is linked by water, land and human resources, which is an important factor of production.
To bring benefit to the people. "Geared to benefit the majority" in the main basin. This is an integrated water management.
The Sustainable Water Management Refers to the way of management that focuses on all parts of society to know the value of water.
Water moderately realistic So that water resources are used widely. Effective fully
There is a balance of both quantity and quality. The development and utilization will need to be in conjunction with conservation.
And to restore sustainable Not to consume or destroy the way it is now, that is.
• The utilization of water resources for economic development ... should be a philosophy. "Sufficiency Economy" is.
Being focused on the well-being and self-reliant. Before the foundation
• The protection and restoration of water resources. And other resources related to the dispute remain abundant. To achieve development
And rely on the sustainable management of water and other resources. Which are associated closely integrated.
And sustainable, requires knowledge of many disciplines, such as science into management. Engineering, Law, Political Science
Sociology and anthropology, etc., in a variety of knowledge of the management of water resources.
(The water in the atmosphere, surface water, groundwater) and soil resources and land. Forest resources (Including animals and plants, etc.).
Within each river basin (Or designated area) must be continued solidarity with the union.
The essence of managing water. The author is an example below.
Water management is

• Implementation of one or several combined. The integration of water and related resources in the Basin.
• To solve the water crisis, water shortages .... Flood and water quality degradation (sewage) is substantial.
To alleviate the problem or eliminate it completely.
• The goal is to make everything social in both animals and plants, and the environment and quality of life better.
A biodiversity People use water sustainably and comprehensively. Justice without opposition
As well as economic development, effectively and well.
For water management activities is included.
• water supply so there is enough water for survival and development in various fields.
• the allocation and use of water that is efficient and fair.
• watershed conservation Water conservation and water resources
• alleviate the flooding problem and that is why it causes the loss of life and property.
• Fix water quality
3. Water management should be done in a systematic manner in the watershed.
Ecosystem that is mainly used to manage water and other natural resources is a "watershed ecosystem," the statement said.
"Watershed" refers to the area or areas within the watershed line. The line of demarcation is then that rain runoff.
That is, if there is no rain in the area irrigated with river water flows caused by rain water from the area.
With the joint solution Considers that all areas of rain in the catchment area of ​​the upper basin often.
A mountainous area known as "upstream".
The scope is commonly used Basin Natural Resources Management and Environment. Because the area of ​​each watershed
An ecosystem of its own This includes all living things, such as forests, wildlife, trees and people and inanimate.
Such as air, water, soil, minerals, including things. Other man-made Usually within the ecosystem of the basin should be.
The balance between living and non-living things. Where people can live and live happily enough sustainable.
The basin is suitable for areas of natural resources and environment.
It is also suitable for use in areas of economic and social development as well. The development, or doing any activity.
In the area of ​​the basin may affect the economic and social development of another area in the same watershed.
But in practice, it seems that the government does not use this approach. Often used as a political district boundaries.
The Economic and Social Development Because of the familiarity with the basics of the area like a village.
Provincial, district, and already And can be used immediately.
Using the administrative district in the management of natural resources and the environment is not.

Users in line with the realities of ecology.
For example, one area may cover several river basins. Development or management of natural resources and the environment.
In the same way, it can not be used at all. Each basin has its own characteristics.
In addition, the basin may cover several counties. Developments in one area may affect the population.
One of the other provinces Since those provinces in the ecosystem of the basin as a result.
It is right and correct to the watershed is the area of ​​managing natural resources and the environment.
Including the development of economy and society.

4. The issue of water resources in Thailand
Problems related to water resources The major
1) Water shortages in various activities.
2) flood damage, urban and agricultural areas floods ....
3) The problem of water waste

In summary, said that Every region in the country has a problem with water is quite similar.
• The region is the shortage of water in some areas and seasons. Many areas have a lot of problems due to flooding.
Caused by forest watershed areas being destroyed.
• The North East Often resulting in severe water shortages. When it does not rain and in the dry season.
Because the soil is sandy, so there is evaporation and seepage of water into the soil than other sectors. The rains were likely caused by flooding.
Riverside alluvial lowland areas in various regions of the basin, which is a problem that many people have suffered.
• The region needs a lot of water is used for agriculture, especially in the dry season. The rains often cause flooding
According to the lowland area of ​​the Chao Phraya river basin in the provinces. Including Bangkok The lower Chao Phraya River
Tha Chin river There is water, water quality problems, which is a more serious every year.
• Eastern main problem is the shortage of water in coastal communities, the rapid expansion.
And the various estates
• Southern region has a shortage of water. Water quality problems from acid sulfate salt water issues and the importance of this sector.
Was caused flash floods that may occur by different provinces since the wettest rain forest and watershed reclamation were destroyed much of it.

Problems and causes of such problems. Said that there are two big reasons why.
Occurred due to human actions, which cause many forms. Another reason is due to its natural state.
Each of the local variation of the warp and the rain season, which is a natural phenomenon that is beyond our control.
