This report has relied primarily on written sourcwes. Those providing most fruitful have been the annual reports of various state agencies, the occasional reports of study commissions and blue ribbon panels, and the coes, statutes, and case law of the two states. Agen cy files proved difficult to use because they are boxed and stored, full of irrelevant material, unorganized and uncataloged. Interviews with persons familiar with Bay issues have given a general orientation to a particular period, and suggestions of topics or sources for further research. We have not attempted to get detai9led information of specific events through such interviews.
