ABSTRACT: In 2005, public water supply in Florida accounted for an average 2.5 billion gallons per day of fresh water withdrawals. A large percentage of this water is used to irrigate urban landscapes. The purpose of this study is to develop methods for estimating average and peak water use rates for outdoor water use in urban areas. These estimates are used to support the development of water conservation planning methodologies that are being developed by the Conserve Florida Water Clearinghouse.
