  Freddy Vang, deputy director of the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Land, Water and Conservation Division, says this is just the beginning of the process. "Long-term forecast projections have been remarkably accurate," Vang said.

  "In the process of moving from moderate to incipient, the DNR will increase its monitoring and notify the members of the committee in two-week intervals about levels, flows, and rainfalls," said Alfred Vang, director of the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Land, Water and Conservation Division.

  Officials from the South Carolina Natural Resources Department's Land, Water and Conservation Division plan to meet with North Carolina officials regarding record low levels in the Pee Dee River, said deputy director Alfred Vang.
  
  Carolina Power & Light, Duke Power, and Alcoa, all water consumers in North Carolina, have begun to see their operations threatened by the reduced flow levels in the rivers that feed the Pee Dee, Vang said.
  
  Electric power plants use water to cool their generating systems, and power generation capacity shrinks along with falling stream flows.

  "This past year, we came within feet of shutting down nuclear power plants because there wasn't sufficient water to cool them," said Freddy Vang, the deputy director of natural resources in South Carolina, which is enmeshed in disputes with North Carolina, over the Pee Dee, and with Georgia, over the Savannah."At the same time, we came within feet of shutting down major municipal water supplies because they couldn't pump water anymore.
  
  "So the question is, how do we take a shared resource and manage it to both entities' benefit?"Mr. Vang said."And right now, there are zero rules."
  
  Compared with the West, where rivers like the Colorado were long ago apportioned drop by drop, most of the East is an empty page when it comes to deciding how much water a state can draw from a river.Until recently, that did not seem much of a bother, because most rivers seemed abundant.But then came the summer lows.
  
  ...
  At the height of last summer's drought, Mr. Vang, the South Carolina official, went to North Carolina and successfully appealed to his counterparts there for more water to be released.South Carolina is also trying to persuade the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which regulates the power plants, to guarantee more water for the state.
  
  But the two states have yet to agree on a formula, despite what experts say is an increasingly pressing need to do so across the region.
