Other use was treated similar to footnote a. <br /> <br />State Water Projections <br /> <br />The most significant use of water in future years will be for irrigation <br />of crops (Table 4-3). Slightly over 85 percent of the total projection <br />requirement will be util ized for irrigation. Industry (which includes <br />mining, manufacturing, and utilities) will account for slightly less <br />than 9 percent of the total. People, whether they live in cities or <br />in rural areas, will require about 4 percent of the total quantity <br />forecast. <br /> <br />28. <br />
