Abstract/Contents

Abstract: Increasing freshwater withdrawals will result in negative consequences to natural systems, especially in water-stressed regions. Habitat restoration projects may mitigate some of these challenges, but new strategies will be needed. Recycled water is a reliable resource that can be used to renew degraded urban streams. We have: (1) evaluated aspects of hydrology, water quality, and ecosystem services that relate to water reuse for urban stream renewal; (2) assessed the economic and ecological merits of a recycled water for streamflow augmentation projects; and (3) characterized historic flow-regimes at the regional scale, potential unintended ecological effects of augmented flows, and specific caveats related to recycled water. Our results suggest that augmentation can be economically and ecologically beneficial in some cases. Site selection, treatment technology, and flow commitment are the three design and management choices that have the greatest impact on project success.
