Abstract

This project studied anticipated water demands and use patterns under a range of climate change scenarios, categorized by specific customer class and industry sector, so that water utilities may better plan for and respond to changing water use patterns as a result of climate change. The report provides recommendations for water utilities to plan for and respond to the anticipated water use patterns, and identifies key concerns and areas for additional analysis by region. Published in 2013. The PDF is now available to download (10 MB file). The printed report may be ordered and will be shipped in about 3 weeks.
