Water use in Kansas, 2005 |
|
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) compiles National water-use estimates every five years. The most recent compilation was for year 2005. The data compiled include water withdrawn from surface- and ground-water sources and used for various categories of water use. Total, surface-water, and ground-water fresh (non-saline) water-use estimates by category of use for Kansas counties are available. Data are reported in million of gallons per day (Mgal/d).
