Source Text
The most efficient and economical method to achieve the desired result has been debated within the legislature and among the citizenry generally for several years
Text References
The most efficient and economical method to achieve the desired result has been debated within the legislature and among the citizenry generally for several years
engineering studies by him and his professional colleagues indicate the most efficient solution from an engineering standpoint is a series of low dams
his engineering analysis indicates a more effective and less expensive solution, producing the same results, by using one high dam
