Use the data in Table 2.5.1 for the TAMA to determine the groundwater overdraft needed if the municipal sector demand increased to 210 × 106 m3/year and the CAP water was no longer available.
Table 2.5.1 The Year 1995 TAMA Water Budget (Demand and Supply)
Demand (106 m3/year) |
| Supply (106 m3/year) | ||
CAP water | Effluent | Groundwater | ||
Municipal sector | 191.8 | 0.12 | 9.50 | 182.2 |
Agricultural sector | 120.9 | 0 | 2.22 | 118.7 |
Industrial sector | 74.3 | 0 | 0.99 | 73.3 |
Loss due to evaporation | 4.56 | 0 | 0 | 4.56 |
