Physical structures and facilities that deliver the federal, state, and local governments' services are essential to the economic and social development of communities, regions, and nations. As our cities age and our government "recreates" itself, can our transportation, water resources, waste management, and public utilities systems absorb the strain? Gathered from experience and applied research, Public Works Administration is a collection of modern perspectives on public works administration. Contributors examine public works such as federal reservoirs, urban forestry, solid waste disposal, and urban highways and also explore the concepts of privatization, growth management, site location, and funding.
