Prepared by the Committee on Operation and Maintenance of Irrigation and Drainage Systems of the Irrigation and Drainage Division of ASCE.

Management, Operation and Maintenance of Irrigation and Drainage Systems, MOP 57, presents significant innovations and modifications of procedures that have been implemented throughout the irrigation and drainage industry, particularly in areas of management and maintenance strategies, environmental benefits, and safety practices. This Manual, a revision of the 1980 edition, is intended to help irrigation and drainage districts to minimize costs while maximizing production with available resources.

This revised manual should be of interest to anyone associated with irrigation and drainage systems throughout the world.
