Stormwater reuse<br />

Opportunity Social Environmental<br />

Reduces stormwater impacts<br />

and flooding.<br />

Cost effective means of<br />

upgrading stormwater<br />

capacities.<br />

Help protect oyster industry with<br />

improved run-off entering local<br />

waterways.<br />

Improved public health<br />

outcomes<br />

9.12.4 <strong>Integrated</strong> <strong>Water</strong> <strong>Cycle</strong> <strong>Management</strong> Scenarios<br />

Controls pollutants entering the<br />

environment.<br />

Improves quality of local<br />

waterways<br />

Reduces erosion from increased<br />

run-off.<br />

Efficient use of water resources.<br />

Reduces pressure on water<br />

supply sources for irrigation<br />

purposes<br />

Using the bundling process, the above water management opportunities can be combined<br />

into integrated scenarios. Table 9-37 presents some examples of integrated scenarios.<br />

Stormwater quantity and quality control<br />

measures for low priority areas<br />

Stormwater harvesting and reuse for open<br />

Minimal/traditional Improve current sewage treatment system and increase treatment capacity.<br />

<strong>Integrated</strong> Scenario 2 Improve current sewage treatment system, increase treatment capacity and<br />

incorporate stormwater quality and quantity control measures.<br />

<strong>Integrated</strong> Scenario 3 Improve current sewage treatment system, increase treatment capacity,<br />

incorporate stormwater quality and quantity control measures and stormwater reuse.<br />

The TBL assessment (Table 9-38) presents the comparative environmental, social and<br />

economic benefits of each integrated scenario example.<br />
