Download or read book Offsetting the Cost of Water Conservation Methods to Achieve Zero net Water Use written by Kendra Cecil Olmos and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability to achieve zero-net water use (in which the annual amount of potable water use is no greater than the amount of water that falls on-site) and achieve reasonable payback periods for water conservation measures was investigated for a proposed mixed-use housing development in Davis, California. Different water efficiency scenarios were analyzed for indoor and landscaping water use, as well as use of graywater and rainwater for landscaping. Cost savings resulted from water utility cost savings and water-energy cost savings (energy reductions from the decrease in water and wastewater treatment and conveyance, and hot water use). The feasibility of selling carbon offset credits in California's new Cap-and-Trade Program through the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions resulting from water-energy reductions was also investigated. Zero-net water was possible on the site-scales of a single family residence and the entire community with indoor and landscaping conservation measures alone

This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Feasibility of Serving the Plumas County Flood Control and Water Conservation District From the State Water Project In November 1960, the California Water Resources Development Bond Act was approved by the State's electorate, paving the way for the construction of the State Water Project. Since that time, many local water service agencies throughout the state have applied to the Department of Water Resources for consideration as potential contractors with the State for water service from the proposed facilities. Several water agencies have been organized and formed since November 1960 expressly for the purpose of obtaining supplemental water supplies from the State facilities for the areas they represent. Prior to executing contracts for a water supply with public agencies, the Department of Water Resources made studies of those agencies and the areas encompassed by them to determine the propriety of entering into such contracts. These studies were made with the goal of evala ating (1) each area's future demand for supplemental water supplies, (2) the legal ability of each agency in question to enter into a water supply contract with the State, (3) the engineering feasibility of providing the proposed water service, and (4) the financial ability of each agency and its constituent area to bear the financial burden necessarily imposed upon it by a water supply contract with the State.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: California’s water is at the center of an intense economic and political struggle. A balance between supply and demand must be reached, but it is far from certain that all Californians will get as much water as they want at a price they feel is right. Competition for California Water presents essential information on key issues, including: Costs: What would be the yields and what would be the costs, in dollars as well as less tangible values, of developing new sources of water? Cost-sharing: How much of the cost of water development and distribution should be borne by the general public, and how much by water users and other beneficiaries? Environmental protection: To what extent should environmental values be protected? Conservation: To what extent can the need for new water development be offset by conservation and more efficient use of water? Institutional reform: Can changes in the laws and institutions of California produce a more efficient system of water supply and management? Agriculture: How much increase in cost and/or loss of water can California agriculture bear and still remain competitive? Thirty-one experts on all aspects of this topic project alternative futures for California’s water supply. Written in nontechnical language, Competition for California Water is an invaluable source of information for Californians concerned with the future of their state.
