Reusing our urban water resources: from house to city scale Dr Grace Mitchell Institute for Sustainable Water Resources Monash University

Lot scale – i.e. your house Infiltration of roof runoff Rainwater tank Greywater reuse Water efficiency

Neighbourhoods and suburbs Greywater reuse Grass swales Stormwater harvesting Wastewater reuse

Cities and regions Water supply dam Large water & wastewater treatment plants Education Rebates Trunk water mains

Implication of scale of solutions.. Important to recognise relationship between technologies and scale Why? Because the scale has many implications, such as: who installs and/or owns and/or operates the technology required regulations and approvals who pays for it and how it is paid for…
