If this <br />trend does not occur, population increases are underestimated. <br /> <br />5.1.2 Water Use Estimates <br />Water use demands associated with the three projected growth scenarios have been assessed. Recent <br />water use data from representative municipalities and water districts were reviewed in order to develop <br />per capita water use estimates for several geographic regions. Water use estimates were analyzed for <br /> <br />15 <br />
