This collection was given to WRCA in 1973 by Erwin Cooper, former information officer for the California Department of Water
Resources. it is made up of press releases, speeches (many by former DWR Directors), news clippings, reports, photographs,
and miscellaneous memoranda on California water resources development during the period 1950-1965. Some of the material was
used as source material for Cooper's book,
Aqueduct Empire: A Guide to Water in California, its Turbulent History and its Management today, published in 1968. The collection is particularly outstanding in its coverage of the California State Water Project (Feather
River Water Project).
