Senator Edward M. Kennedy proposed a 10 point plan to curb the Northeast water shortage in a speech to conservationists at the University of Connecticut. He urged changing federal rules to allow more private college participation, consolidating planning into metropolitan districts, financing rural areas, new water storage methods, water reuse in appliances, tax relief for plants to reduce pollution, uniform interstate water quality standards, advanced sewage treatment, and home or facility water-saving devices.
