This grant is for a project investigating changes in Single Family Residential (SFR) water use, aiming to understand underlying demand declines and estimate future rates. The initiative will compile key findings into a dynamic planning model, supporting comprehensive sensitivity analysis. This model will also facilitate scenario testing to address critical planning questions, such as potential minimum demand levels or the long-term consequences of economic impacts like recessions on water usage. Although the primary focus remains on analyzing existing SFR housing stock, a qualitative examination of future new housing characteristics will additionally be performed. This study is crucial for robust water resource planning and management.

| Description: | This project will investigate the changes in Single Family Residential (SFR) water use that underlie declines in water demand and estimate rates of future changes. Results will be compiled into a dynamic planning model that supports sensitivity analysis to help identify key unknowns. The planning model will also accommodate scenario testing to address various questions, such as, How low could demand go? or, What might be the consequences if some impacts of the recession are permanent? Although the project will focus on changes within the existing SFR housing stock, a qualitative examination of future new housing characteristics also will be performed. |
