Integrated Planning and Management for Urban Water Supplies Considering Multiple Uncertainties

UC Water Resources Center Technical Completion Report W-813
ABSTRACT: Urban water supply planning has changed greatly in recent decades, and has
generally become a much more technically serious endeavor. (Urban water supply has
always been a politically serious endeavor, with abundant sources of uncertainty (Lund,
1988a, b).) Yet for all the serious and fine technical work and research on urban water
supply engineering and economics, it often seems that such work has not provided a clear
unified approach for combining the many technical measures available for water supply
system planning and management. This report seeks to provide such a unified analytical
approach, addressing the integrated economical use of yield enhancement, water transfer,
and demand management measures in a context of risk and uncertainty from many
hydrologic and institutional sources.
