The US National Water-Use Information Program is a cooperative program between the states and the Federal Government. The purpose of the program is to determine how much fresh and saline surface water and ground water is withdrawn and for what purpose, how much water is consumed during use, and how much water is returned to a water body after use. To accomplish its purpose, the program's goals are to: 1) collect and compile water-use data; 2) develop and refine computerized water-use data systems; 3) improve the collection and analysis of water-use information; and 4) disseminate information.-from ASCE Publications Information
