The use of water is, however, not always without problems.

Over the next decade, water use in the region is expected to increase by 20 percent.

Water use will be reduced by 70 percent, officials said.

Businesses are being required to cut their water use by 20 percent.

In rural areas water use is sometimes even lower than this level.

Under such a system, fees could be based on water use.

The river system is under pressure from conflicts of interest in water use.

It would be paid for through charges on water use in the city.
