3.3 Projected <strong>Water</strong> UseGrowth projections for the number of service connections and volume of water use werecalculated for the year 2015 through 2035, in 5-year increments. Future water demands wereestimated using two different methods, a population-based approach and a historical-trendapproach, in order to present a projection range reflecting the inherent uncertainty in growthtrends. Additionally, demand projections are provided showing a scenario where the <strong>Culver</strong> <strong>City</strong>System fully meets water use target reductions by 2020 for comparison to current per capitawater use trends. Detailed descriptions of how the population-based and historical-trendprojections were calculated are provided below.The range established between these two approaches is intended as supplemental information;all connection and demand estimates use the population-based growth rate projections, whichare higher and provide a more conservative estimate of future water use. The historical-trendprojections are provided as ancillary information only.Figure 3-2 shows the historical and projected number of metered service connections for the<strong>Culver</strong> <strong>City</strong> System from 1994 through 2035.
