Water Efficiency Programs for Integrated Water Management

by Thomas Chesnutt, Gary Fiske, Janice A. Beecher

The research provides a conceptual framework organizing information about WUE programs (costs, savings, and benefits) in ways that make for more informed water resources decisions. Chapters are provided for each of these concepts. In addition, two planning models developed and tested in the research process--a Water Utility Direct Avoided Cost Model and a Benefit-Cost WUE Planning Model--are provided on CD-ROM. A compendium of working assumptions for WUE savings and costs estimates was compiled as part of this research.
