Withdrawal vs Consumption
• Consumed– Evaporated– Transpired– Incorporated into crops– Consumed by humans or livestock– consumptive use—the part of water withdrawn
that is evaporated, transpired, incorporated into products or crops, consumed by humans or livestock, or otherwise removed from the immediate water environment.

Types of withdrawal
• Domestic-commercial
• Industrial-Mining
• Thermoelectric power
• Irrigation—some use for livestock
• Consumptive-use estimates were included in some previous water-use Circulars but were omitted for 2000. Also referred to as water consumed.

Who uses the most water in the US?
• California• Texas
• The least ?• Alaska
• Dependent on population and agriculture

How do you get water to cities?
• 1st stream channels were altered or extended to flow into more accessible areas
• Greeks built masonry structures and made tunnels to move water
• Romans built aqueducts—by A.D. 97 they had 9 aqueducts that brought 322 million liters a day to Rome

Irrigation
• Within the U.S. differs from east to west: about 5% in the east is used for irrigation, 90% of water use in west is for irrigation.
The water used in irrigation accounts for 85% of all the water consumed in the U.S.
![Page 16: Use of water and water composition](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061110/544f4bf1af79596a6a8b8536/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Industrial Use
• For processing, washing, and cooling
• Most water is returned to the system, however we need to concerned about the quality: industrial pollution and heat pollution
![Page 17: Use of water and water composition](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061110/544f4bf1af79596a6a8b8536/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Thermoelectric power
• Water used in the generation of electricty from fossil fuels, nuclear and geothermal sources
• About 98% of the water is returned to system, but it is hotter than it should be
![Page 18: Use of water and water composition](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061110/544f4bf1af79596a6a8b8536/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Hydroelectric Power
• Total average flow in all U.S. rivers is 1270 Bgal/day
• Total instream hydroelectric power use: about 3300 Bgal/day
• How does that work?

Water Resources
• 1. Hydrologic Cycle and Water Reservoirs
• 2. Floods and Flood Control
• 3. Use of Water
• 4. Water Composition
• 5. Water Problems
![Page 21: Use of water and water composition](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061110/544f4bf1af79596a6a8b8536/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Water Composition
• “Pure spring water”– About 30 ppm of dissolved material 0.003%
• Dead sea/Great Salt Lake – About 300,000 ppm or 30%
• Ocean Water– 35,000 ppm or 3.5%
![Page 22: Use of water and water composition](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061110/544f4bf1af79596a6a8b8536/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Water for human consumption
• Should have less than 500 ppm dissolved salts
• Water with > 2000 ppm is unsuitable for most other uses (perhaps cooling would be ok—but not irrigation)
