Popis: We review a wide range of projects which have been implemented, investigated and/or proposed to the end of the 20th century for carrying water into, out of, or within the Great Lakes basin, including bulk and ballast removals by ship and bottled water trade, and interbasin diversions. Limited reference is made to other parts of North America and to other countries for lessons that maybe applicable to the Great Lakes context. Neither economics nor humanitarian need appears to offer a compelling argument for significant new water removals or exports in the near future.
