“…1). A withdrawal is made by an individual user or by a community water system (CWS) that may treat the water and convey (deliver) it to users through a distribution system (Horn, 2002). A CWS is defined as a public water system that delivers water for human consumption through pipes and other constructed conveyances and regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents or has at least 15 service connections used by year-round residents (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1998).…”

“…Consumptive use refers to water that evaporates during use or is incorporated into a product and, therefore, is removed from the immediate environment. Unaccounted-for water use refers to water in a distribution system that leaks back into the hydrologic system, is used in firefighting, or is used for infrastructure maintenance (street cleaning, filter backwash at the treatment plant, or hydrant and system flushing) (Horn, 2002).…”

This project has been carried out with support from Sarah Pillsbury and Brandon Kernen of the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES). The authors would like to thank Johnna McKenna of NHDES for providing the Water Distribution and Sewer Collection Areas geographic information systems data, Linda Thompson of New Hampshire Drinking Water and Groundwater Bureau for providing a copy of the Drinking Water database, Frederick Chormann of the New Hampshire Geological Survey/NHDES for providing a copy of the state water-use registration database (WATUSE), and Daniel Dudley of NHDES for providing a copy of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) wastewater facility database. We would also like to thank Leslie DeSimone and Mark Nardi of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) for their critical reviews of the report. Appreciation also is extended to the following USGS employees: Kim Otto and Ruth Larkins for editorial reviews, Susan Bergin and Christine Mendelsohn for illustrations, and Ann Marie Squillacci for manuscript preparation and layout.
