Current Water Conservation (Task 3.1) Alan H. Plummer, Jr., P.E., BCEE

Agenda Introductory comments Issues relative to measurement of conservation Current conservation and reuse efforts Recommendations for ongoing planning efforts

Introduction Water conservation, including reuse, has been established as a major water management strategy for Region C Strategies have been implemented that have significantly contributed to relative water demand reductions throughout the region

Issues Relative to Measurement of Conservation

Regional/Local Comparisons: GPCD Calculation Factors Water Usage Volume Population

Conservation Measurement Issues Calculation techniques and input data differ between entities Water Conservation Advisory Council recommendations Develop methodology, metrics, and standards to measure and report water conservation and water conservation implementation Develop specific guidelines for calculating GPCD Do not use total GPCD for comparisons

2006 Municipal Per Capita Water Use by Region

2006 Total Per Capita Water Use by Region

Normalized GPCD Comparison Major Texas Cities – 2007

Current Conservation and Reuse Efforts

Region C Water Conservation Progress Significant public awareness campaign Time of day irrigation restrictions Low flow toilet rebate programs Public/school education programs Water waste prohibition ordinances Increasing block water price structures Residential water audits offered at discount/ free cost Municipal/systemwide water audits

Region C Water Reuse Progress Region C Plan includes significant reuse projects to meet water demands for Augmentation of potable supply Electrical power generation Irrigation (i.e., golf courses) and other nonpotable needs A number of entities have developed water reuse plans

Recommendations Continue coordinated public education activities Continue strategies recommended in Region C Plan Participate and support development of standardized metrics and approach to calculating GPCD. Measurement of savings Provide water planners with information necessary to make decisions regarding cost-effective measures Water planners to measure performance (tool to measure effectiveness)
