Whether present indications of changes in trends are the result of temporary fluctuations or a more general, long‐term leveling out of customer water requirements is a subject of increasing concern within the water industry. In Part I of this report the AWWA Com. on Water Use assesses current trends in water use and the factors influencing these trends. In Part II it reviews the 1966 Johns Hopkins Univ. residential water‐use research report for possible practical application in estimating average and peak residential water use.
