Proceedings of the International Symposium on Efficient Water use in Urban Areas - Innovative ways of finding water for cities: IETC Report 9
Proceedings of the International Symposium on Efficient Water Use in Urban Areas - Innovative Ways of Finding Water for Cities. In June 1999, IETC organised an international symposium on 'Efficient Water Use in Urban Areas' in Kobe, Japan. The symposium was aimed at enhancing the capacity of urban managers and decision-makers in water resources management.
Topics covered at the symposium include rainwater utilisation, water reuse, aquifer recharge, leakage control, and water demand management, as approaches for securing water by efficient use of existing water sources to avoid water shortages in urban areas. Presentations and discussions in each session covered the advantages, special features, and characteristics of each approach, including obstacles and barriers to be overcome. Case studies of efficient water use and effective management practices of water resources were also profiled. The report contains session summaries, technical papers presented and information materials produced for the symposium.
