Small and intermediate-sized municipalities frequently lack the resources to carry out effective water management programs. A detailed, "do-it-yourself" audit is now available to such communities to help them identify available water resources, isolate problem areas, set goals, and develop management strategies. Stressing water conservation and reuse, the audit has five goals: to identify the potential for conservation, to reduce volumetric demand, to reduce peak demand in order to postpone the need for water system expansion, to identify potential uses for wastewater and stormwater, and to promote responsible management of water resources. The guide's self-help format, complete with questions and instructions, enables municipalities to perform an audit without outside assistance and to repeat the procedure when necessary. Includes 2 references, figure.
