The lines and arrows indicate the distribution of water from source to disposition for each category; for <br />example. surface water was 76.5 percent cftotal freshwater withdrawn, and going from "Source" to "Use" columns, the <br />line from the surface-water block to the domestic and commercial block indicates that 0.6 percent of all surface water <br />withdrawn was the source for 4.1 percent of total water (self-supplied withdrawals, public-supply deliveries) for domes- <br />tic and commercial purposes. In addition, going from the "Use" to "Disposition" columns, the line from the domestic <br />and commercial block to the consumptive use block indicates that 17.3 percent of the water for domestic and commercial <br />purposes was consumptive use; this represents 7.2 percent of total consumptive use by all water-use categories. <br /> <br />~'O""'_ <br /> <br />........,...~ <br /> <br />..~....,-------'~.__._-~_.._~~~ <br />
