2. INTRODUCTION…
 Water resources are sources of water that are useful or
potentially useful. Uses of water include agricultural
industrial, household, recreational and environmental
activities. The majority of human uses require freshwater.
 97 percent of the water on the Earth is salt water and only
three percent is freshwater; slightly over two thirds of this
is frozen in glaciers and polar ice caps. The remaining
unfrozen freshwater is found mainly as groundwater, with
only a small fraction present above ground or in the air.

3. RAIN WATER
HARVESTING…
 Rainwater harvesting is a technique used for
collecting, storing, and using rainwater for landscape
irrigation and other uses. The rainwater is collected from
various hard surfaces such as roof tops and/or other types
of manmade above ground hard surfaces. This web site will
mainly focus on general information about rainwater
harvesting systems, rain water system advantages and
disadvantages, and helpful links and references.

4. WATERSHED
MANAGEMENT…
 Watershed management is the study of the relevant
characteristics of a watershed aimed at the sustainable
distribution of its resources and the process of creating and
implementing plans, programs, and projects to sustain and
enhance watershed functions that affect the plant, animal,
and human communities within a watershed
boundary. Features of a watershed that agencies seek to
manage include water supply, water
quality, drainage, storm water runoff, water rights.
