First Published in 2011. The purposes of this book are to analyze and describe the National Resources Planning Board (NRPB) and its direct predecessor agencies in the setting of their times, and to draw any lessons their experience offers us today. Resources for the Future (RFF) has a long tradition of conducting studies of government agencies that administer natural resource programs and policies. This book is in the RFF tradition of institutional studies with exhaustive coverage of an agency no longer in existence to anticipate emerging problems and provide a comprehensive viewpoint of its successes and failures. The audience for this book are all persons interested in government, natural resources, economic and social studies, and in planning generally.
