Question 2.

NO, Stop Here

2. Is reclaimed water the only water source

available to your operation? If Yes, Stop Here.
If No, continue to Question 3 and complete
the RW Comparison Worksheet.

YES, Stop Here

NO, continue to Question 3 and

complete the RW Comparison
Worksheet.

3. What other water source(s) are available to

your operation for irrigation? (circle all that
apply)

Floridan aquifer

Intermediate aquifer

Surface water source

Other, please specify:

4. Of these water sources, which is the water source that would be

replaced, in whole or in part, by reclaimed water? For the purposes of
the RW Comparison Worksheet, this water source will be called the
"Next Available Water Source" or NAWS.

YES ______
NO _____

5. Has the applicant obtained, from the reclaimed water provider, the
nutrient contents and chemical constituents in the reclaimed water,
including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, trace elements including
boron, and the electrical conductivity and sodium absorption ratio
(sodium, chloride and magnesium) of the water? This information
should be used to assist in estimating the benefits and costs of using
reclaimed water for irrigation.

Enter the information in the Spreadsheet titled "RW Comparison Worksheet".

MODEL DISCLAIMER

The Reclaimed Water Benefit-Cost Calculator for Irrigation is to be used to provide guidance as to the
economic feasibility of using reclaimed water for a specific purpose. The values that the user will input
into the model are estimates and the model results should not be the only factor in determining
economic feasibility. Instead, the model results should be viewed in the proper context of all other
information submitted and relevant to the water use permit application or renewal.

The example values used in the models and referenced in the accompanying report are purely
illustrative for the purposes of this study presentation only. Readers and users are advised to develop
proper estimates of costs and benefits that would be appropriate for their individual site(s). Except
where explicitly directed (e.g., to obtain the proper values of nitrogen fertilizer and fuel costs from
specific websites), the example values provided in the model and in this report are NOT default
values.

For information regarding how to use this Reclaimed Water Benefit-Cost Calculator for Irrigation, please
read Chapter 3.0 Reclaimed Water Benefit-Cost Evaluation for Irrigation Uses found in the document
titled "Economic Feasibility of Reclaimed Water Use by Non-Utility Water Use Permittees and

Net Value of Change in Crop Production - Annual

86

(b) This average crop production is an estimate and could be due to increased reliability of reclaimed water,
differences in water quality, increased availability of water for frost/freeze protection and/or more water
available to meet crop water requirements when compared to next available water source (NAWS).

87

G. Change in Quality of Nursery Plant, Lawn and/or Landscape - Annual

88

Change in Net Revenue (Market Value minus Variable Cost) Annual (c)

89

(c) This change in net revenue is an estimate and can be positive or negative. This value would be positive if
more water is available to meet the plant's water requirements when compared to the next available water
source (NAWS) which results in improved plant quality and, thus, increases landscape plant prices or revenue.
For golf courses, improved quality of lawn and landscape during drought could increase golf course use and,
thus, sales. The net revenue during a drought year would be the change in revenue minus the change in cost
due to having reclaimed water during a drought year. This net revenue during a drought year would be
multiplied by the proportion of years that a drought occurs. For example, a proportion of 0.10 means that
drought restrictions occur once every ten years. Variable cost includes the costs that increase with increasing
production or sales, and decrease with decreasing production or sales. The change in net revenue would be
negative if the use of reclaimed water reduces plant quality which reduces revenue through lower plant sales or
number of golfers.

H. Value of Additional Water Available from Reclaimed Water Source

Additional Water Available from Reclaimed Water Source in million gallons per year
compared to amount needed and available from NAWS- Annual:

92

What is the cost per 1,000 gallons to obtain this fresh water, including any pumping costs?
This is a lower bound estimate of the value of water to the operation. The actual value is
likely much higher than this value. (This can be calculated by the irrigation water user using
another spreadsheet.)

96

Amount of fresh water that would be "freed up" due to the reclaimed water use and would be
used for other reasonable / beneficial uses, including other irrigation needs, by the applicant
during a year in million gallons (on average)?

97

Cost per 1,000 gallons of fresh water, including any pumping costs. This is a lower bound
estimate of the value of water to the operation. The actual value is likely much higher than
this value. (From H. above)

this value. (From H. above)

Net Benefit of Reclaimed Water Use Relative to Next

Water (d)

110

(d) Net Benefit is the sum of the benefits minus the sum of the costs of RW/Other. These are benefits and
costs when compared to the Next Available Water Source (NAWS). A positive number means the estimated
value of the total benefit of RW/Other is greater than the estimated value of the total cost of RW/Other. A
negative number means the estimated value of the total benefit of RW/Other is less than the estimated value of
the total cost of RW/Other.
