Abstract : Rainfall patterns in Australia have altered in recent decades, with trends of lower rainfall across densely populated southern areas recorded. Such drastic changes in climatic conditions have triggered a re-evaluation of traditional techniques and methods to manage urban water demand and supply. Throughout the nation, movement towards sustainable urban water resource management is becoming the norm. This water security method involves the planning and implementation of a range of water supply, demand management and source substitution initiatives to meet short term demand and provide long term supply security to urban populations. Examples of these initiatives include: desalinated potable water, water restrictions, water efficient fixtures, awareness campaigns, dual reticulated recycled water supply and on-lot rainwater tanks. In the urban water planning and management industry, these initiatives are relied upon to provide alternative potable supply types and reduce average daily water demand. Predictions and estimations of the potable water savings attributed to water demand management and source substitution measures are often assumed and included in city-wide planning and forecasting documentation. These water demand management and source substitution measures play a significant part in meeting projected city future demand however, these initiatives are all too often planned and implemented without validation of actual potable water savings. Some examples of measuring potential savings through bulk demand reductions are documented although this often involves further application of estimations for other influencing factors such as climate, household makeup and leakage. Understanding the actual potable water savings attributed to water demand management and source substitution initiatives requires the application of end use water consumption monitoring due to the need to establish the point of source savings related to these measures. Significant residential end use water consumption studies have been carried out in Perth and Melbourne in Australia and, in the United States of America. These investigations have ascertained the unique consumption behaviours of residents in the monitored location and presented some examples of measuring water savings attributed to water efficient devices. The variation in end use consumption between the studies and the useful application of results from these investigations has prompted the encouragement of further research in this field. To date, no statistically significant end use water consumption study has occurred in the state of Queensland, Australia. In response to the current gaps in the body of knowledge, this research focused on determining end use water consumption and investigating the end use savings attributed to water efficient fixtures, resource consumption awareness devices, and dual reticulated recycled water supply regions in the Gold Coast, Australia. This study also investigated the relationship between attitudes towards the environment and water conservation and the impact that this had on end use water consumption. The research also developed end use diurnal patterns of consumption for both single and dual reticulated regions on the Gold Coast.

The purpose of the Commercial and Industrial End Uses of Water study is to: Summarize and interpret the existing knowledge base on commercial and institutional (CI) uses of utility-supplied potable water in urban areas; Present the results of field studies in a sample of 25 establishments in five urban areas; Provide econometric end use models for various categories of CI customers; and Develop a set of efficiency benchmarks for five important CI categories - restaurants, hotels and motels, supermarkets, office buildings, and schools.

The American Water Works Association Research Foundation (AWWARF) and 22 municipalities, water utilities, water purveyors, water districts and water providers funded this study. Goals of this research included: Providing specific data on the end uses of water in residential settings across the continent; Assembling data on disaggregated indoor and outdoor uses; Identifying variations in water used for each fixture or appliance according to a variety of factors; and Developing predictive models forecast residential water demand. This report represents a time and place snapshot of how water is used in single-family homes in twelve North American locations. Similarities and differences among 'end users' were tabulated for each location, analyzed and summarized. Great care was taken to create a statistically significant representative sample of customer for each of the twelve locations. However, these twelve locations are not statistically representative of all North American locations.

This reference source on water efficiency in buildings provides comprehensive and up-to-date information. Both multi-disciplinary and practical, it signposts current knowledge, innovation, expertise and evidence on an important subject which is high in the resource management debate. Water Efficiency in Buildings: a review of theory and practice is structured into five sections: Policy; People; Building Design and Planning; Alternative Water Technologies; and Practical Examples & Case Studies. This final section of the book presents new and current practice as well as lessons learnt from case examples on the use of water saving technologies and user engagement. Current evidence is vital for effective policy making. The dynamic nature of issues around water resource management creates a higher need for robust and reliable data and research information that can inform policy and regulations. This compendium provides a roadmap for researchers and building professionals on water efficiency as well as for policy makers and regulators. The case studies and research presented fall within the water supply and demand spectrum, especially those that focus on process efficiency, resource management, building performance, customer experiences and user participation, sustainable practises, scientific and technological innovation. The benefit and impact of the research is at the localandnational level, as well as in the global context.
