Depok sub-district in Yogyakarta is one of the most populous areas, which also develops rapidly. The Tambakbayan watershed, which includes Depok sub-district, has been seen as one crucial watershed in Yogyakarta. This study conducted a Thornthwaite-Mather water balance analysis in the watershed in order to understand its hydrology capability. The result of the study on three stream areas of the watershed (upstream, midstream and downstream) shows that the dry months begins in May- June and ends in September-October. August tends to be the driest month in the year with total deficit value reaches 179.2 mm. Still, the annual rainfall is higher than the annual evapotranspiration. The results also show that the lower area of the watershed has a lower capability to preserve water. However, the watershed still sufficient in providing the domestic water demand in the current state. Comprehensive water management plans suggested to be applied to protect the watershed from overstressing the water resources, especially in the downstream area.

Abstract : Tukad Penet is one of the biggest rivers in Bali which is used to support farming and fresh water demand. The increasing of water demand in various sectors such as for irrigation and drink water recently using water from Yeh Penet source shows the over use of its water has caused some conflicts between the use of the water user for irrigation and another use. Therefore, it was needed to review the use of Yeh Penet water to see how big the potential of its water that could be exploited to support the water source demand. The optimal analysis of water usage was carried out in six regional irrigation (DI) used Penet river water such as DI Peneng, DI Kacangan, DI Luwuscarang Sari, DI Penarungan, DI Kapal and DI Munggu. This analysis was based on cropping, planting and water management as well as a maximum water raw demand of the regional company of drinking water (PDAM) in Tabanan and Badung regency. Based on the simulation result, water availability in each irrigation regional (DI) depended on the cropping and planting. It was needed to provide the planting and rotation system for some irrigation regionals in river fluctuation discharge. The deficit of irrigation water balance occurred in DI Peneng, DI Luwuscarang sari, and DI Kacangan. The optimal use of irrigation water in the third irrigation regional was carried out by using planting stimulation and water management. The water balance analysis result at watershed in the part of downstream Penet watershed showed the availability of water surplus occurred in alternative plan I and II. The water balance analysis showed water availability in alternative plan I of a minimum 0.04 million m3 and maximum 1.43 million m3, whereas in alternative plan II the wasted water availability of a maximum 0.25 million m3 and a maximum 1.51 million m3. The potential development of Penet watershed in alternative plan I was 0.67 million m3 (0.52 m3/sec) and in alternative plan II was 0.76 million m3 (0.58 m3/sec) was not able to support the total water demand in Badung and Tabanan regency. Besides, the water source development of Penet watershed only occurred in downstream part of Yeh Penet river to avoid some conflicts of water utilization in Penet watershed.

Sustained developments is the target of almost every modern water management policy. Sustainability is focused on human life and on the ecological quality of our environment. Both aspects are essential for life on earth. Within a river catchment area this means that well balanced relations have to be laid between human activities and ecological aspects in the involved areas. Policy analysis is especially looking for the most efficient way to analyse and to overcome bottlenecks. In The Netherlands project “The Aquatic Outlook” all these elements are worked out in a nationwide scale, providing the scientific base and policy analysis from which future water management plans can be derived.

Abstract Background Elizabethkingia (EK) are non-motile gram-negative rods found in soil and water and are an emerging cause of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). We describe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) consultations for healthcare-associated EK infections and outbreaks. Methods CDC maintains records of consultations with state or local health departments related to HAI outbreaks and infection control breaches. We reviewed consultations involving EK species as the primary pathogen of concern January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2019 and summarized data on healthcare settings, infection types, laboratory analysis, and control measures. Results We identified 9 consultations among 8 states involving 73 patient infections. Long-term acute-care hospitals (LTACHs) accounted for 4 consultations and 32 (43%) infections, and skilled nursing facilities with ventilated patients (VSNFs) accounted for 2 consultations and 31 (42%) infections. Other settings included an acute care hospital, an assisted living facility, and an outpatient ear, nose, and throat clinic. Culture sites included the respiratory tract (n=7 consultations), blood (n=4), and sinus tract (n=1), and E. anophelis was the most commonly identified species. Six consultations utilized whole genome sequencing (WGS); 4 identified closely related isolates from different patients and 2 also identified closely related environmental and patient isolates. Mitigation measures included efforts to reduce EK in facility water systems, such as the development of water management plans, consulting water management specialists, flushing water outlets, and monitoring water quality, as well as efforts to minimize patient exposure such as cleaning of shower facilities and equipment, storage of respiratory therapy supplies away from water sources, and use of splash guards on sinks. Conclusion EK is an important emerging pathogen that causes HAI outbreaks, particularly among chronically ventilated patients. LTACHs and VSNFs accounted for the majority of EK consultations and patient infections. Robust water management plans and infection control practices to minimize patient exposure to contaminated water in these settings are important measures to reduce infection risk among vulnerable patients.

<em>Generally, reservoir can overcome problem of water availability in particular region. The reservoir collects excess water during rainy season to be used at the time of water shortage during dry season. In Pidie, the largest water sources are from Krueng Baro Geunik and Krueng Tiro. The reservoir is located at Krueng Rukoh with Krueng Tiro as the source of water supply. The reservoir provides water for irrigating and supplying domestic water in Baro (11.950 ha) and Tiro (6.330 ha) areas. There are 13 districts (216718 inhabitants) use the water from this reservoir. Given the population growing at rate of 0.52% then the water demand in the region increases. The aim of study was to estimate the volume of water entering the reservoir using the tank model. Calibration curve between the tank model output and observation data showed good correlation (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.7). The calibrated model was then used to calculate the discharge at Krueng Baro Geunik. A water balance analysis showed that the highest deficit occurred in September and the highest surplus in November. Based on this analysis, the capacity of Krueng Rukoh reservoir is able to fulfill its function assuming the rate of population growth and the irrigation area are constant.</em>

Environmental governance scholars argue that optimal environmental performance can be achieved by matching the scale of governance to the scale of the resource being managed. In the case of water, this means managing at the scale of the watershed. However, many watersheds lack a single watershed-scale organization with authority over all water resources and instead rely on cross-jurisdiction coordination or collaboration among diverse organizations. To understand what “watershed governance” looks like fully, this paper maps organizations with rights to use, regulate, or manage water in four subwatersheds in California (the American, Cosumnes, and Kings Rivers in the Sacramento-San Joaquin watershed and the Shasta River in the Klamath watershed). We assemble datasets of water organizations, water rights holders, and water management plans and use content analysis and social network analysis to explore what water management looks like in the absence of a single basin authority. We describe the institutional complexity that exists in each watershed, compare the physical and institutional interconnections between actors in the watersheds, and then ask to what extent these connections map onto watershed boundaries. We find that the ways in which water management is complex takes very different forms across the four watersheds, despite their being located in a similar political, social, and geographic context. Each watershed has drastically different numbers of actors and uses a very different mix of water sources. We also see very different levels of coordination between actors in each watershed. Given these differences, we then discuss how the institutional reforms needed to create watershed-scale management are unique for each watershed. By building a stronger comparative understanding of what watershed governance actually entails, this work aims to build more thoughtful recommendations for building institutional fit.

Efficient water management plans should rely on quantitative metrics for assessing water resource shortage scenarios. This study develops a simplified precipitation index (PI) requiring precipitation data only in order to assess hydrometeorological droughts affecting various hydrological systems. The PI index is inspired by the famous Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), and it aims to provide the same indication for drought severity and duration while overcoming the disadvantage of needing hydrological data normalization. Avoiding hydrological data normalization overcomes the non-satisfactory results of this procedure that were reported in previous studies. Analysis of groundwater drought drivers in the arid region of Kuwait is presented to test the index applicability at timescales 12 and 24 months using available historical precipitation data from 1958 to 2017. A bivariate joint probability analysis was conducted by Clayton copula to assess the occurrence of certain drought severities and durations. The results showed that PI is comparable to the original SPI and provides drought severity linearly propagating with respect to time. This index constitutes a simple means to help water managers assess and describe the impact of droughts in precipitation-controlled systems and establish appropriate water management plans.

The term groundwater resources was introduced to hydrogeology from economic geology similarly to the resources of ore bodies almost a hundred years ago. It has been used for the need of physical planning, investment in new water intakes, and water management. Discussion on the groundwater resources started in the past after implementation of new methods of their evaluation, e.g. analytical approaches, and physical and then numerical modelling techniques. The ecological aspects of water demand, indicated in the Water Framework Directive, oblige the EU countries to introduce a new idea for the estimation of groundwater resources. This idea is also presented in the water management plans for river catchment areas. Distribution of available groundwater resources in the country and comparison with the groundwater exploitation is the background of proper, sustainable management of its resources. Available groundwater resources of the country, understood as a total amount of disposable and prospective groundwater resources, is 36.4 million m3/day (as of December 31, 2015), including 21.4 million m3/day of disposable resources, and 15 million m3/day of estimated prospective resources.
