Modeling of Hydrologic Processes and Water Salvage Procedures in Semiarid Regions

Partial Technical Completion Report, Office of Water Resources Research, Project A-020-ARIZ / Grant Agreement No. 14-31-0001-3203 / Period of Investigation: 7/69-6/71 / Potential uses or reuses of salvageable waters in the Tucson region were examined, and costs and benefits related to such uses were evaluated. The quality of salvageable waters as determined in exploratory sampling was compared with water quality standards and criteria appropriate for agricultural, recreational and selected industrial uses. A tableau was then constructed which showed the type and estimated cost of conventional water treatment that would be required for each source-to-use combination. Finally, an estimate was made of unit net benefits to be anticipated from salvageable water input to these uses, and the net benefits were applied in several test calculations to illustrate mixed allocations of the various salvaged waters to the selected uses.
