Potential Rainfall and Runoff Utilization in the Tucson Urban Area

An Office of Arid Lands Studies Report to the City of Tucson, Real Estate Division, Contract No. 0255-83 / "This report represents one of two parts of the project "Evaluation, Monitoring and Operation of Existing City Water Harvesting System and Expansion Plan for Future Development of Rainfall Utilization," funded by the City of Tucson during the period November 1982 to June 1983." / Introduction: This report deals with the potential harvesting of rainfall and runoff in the Tucson urban area, as distinguished from the rural (farmland) setting that is discussed separately. The principal differences are that 1) rainfall catchment surfaces like rooftops and pavement already exist in the urban area, and 2)
harvested rainwater in the urbanized area can be put to a variety of beneficial uses.
