Alabama Senator Kim Benefield on Water Planning

Alabama State Senator Kim S. Benefield gets space in The B'ham News to urge others to join her and Republican State Representative Greg Canfield in pushing for a permanent Joint Legislative Committee on Water Policy and Management. Kim is right to seek a comprehensive solution for the many challenges Alabama face that are related to water. I also appreciate her references to the environmental part of the issue. Goat Hill has hardly demonstrated a willingness and talent for tackling complexities such as these that require collective thought and cooperation. The water issue also requires regional and even national involvement. A tip of the tam to Kim for showing some leadership. John Gunn
