L <br />o Withdrawal and consumptive requirements <br />o In- stream requirements <br />o Surface area requirements <br />o Depth and cross section requirements <br />o High flow - characteristic requirements <br />o Low flow- characteristic requirements <br />o Aquatic habitat requirements <br />However, problem severity will be measured in terms that reflect <br />the degree to which (1) conflicts among categories of use, in the foregoing <br />list, and (2) existing institutional conditions, within or among the assess- <br />ment's geographic units, will cause a deficiency to persist, regardless of <br />the amount of supply available to satisfy the future - condition estimates of <br />water use. <br />Finally, problem severity (i. e. , the impact of deficiencies from <br />either a national or a regional viewpoint) is dependent upon assumptions <br />on distribution of water among competing user categories, i. e. , <br />o The various geographic units within each <br />WRC region and /or within each larger river <br />system. <br />o The major water user categories (e.g., urban <br />and rural domiciles, industrial, agricultural <br />and mineral operations, electric power genera- <br />tion, etc. ) within each geographic unit. <br />The results of the foregoing numerical and subjective evaluation, <br />as conducted via the four -step assessment process, will be documented <br />in proposed assessment reports and used in the development of specific <br />recommendations by the Council, as stated in the "Objectives of the 1975 <br />Assessment," <br />
