Water Resources Management in Crete (Greece) Including Water Recycling and Reuse and Proposed Quality Criteria A, B a K.P
Agricultural Water Management 66 (2004) 35–47 Water resources management in Crete (Greece) including water recycling and reuse and proposed quality criteria a, b a K.P. Tsagarakis ∗, G.E. Dialynas , A.N. Angelakis a National Agricultural Research Foundation, Institute of Iraklio, P.O. Box. 2229, 71307 Iraklio, Greece b Municipal Enterprise for Water Supply and Sewerage of Iraklio, 71202 Iraklio, Greece Accepted 17 September 2003 Abstract In Crete, Greece despite having adequate atmospheric precipitation, water imbalance is often expe- rienced, because of temporal and spatial variations in the precipitation, an increase in water demand during summer months and the difficulty of transporting water due to the mountainous terrain. Crete can be regarded as a representative mediterranean region with a relatively high potential for wastewa- ter recycling and reuse. Preliminary estimates show that the implementation of wastewater recycling and reuse plans would lead to water savings of up to 5% of the total irrigation water. The basic aim of this paper is to present views on integrated water resources management in Crete, Greece including the potential for the recycling and reuse of treated wastewater. A preliminary inventory, distribution and mapping of wastewater treatment systems in Crete is also presented. Furthermore, the quality of treated effluents, disposal sites, irrigated areas, and environmental, social, economical, and agronom- ical impacts are considered. Finally, quality criteria for reuse of treated wastewater in Greece and maybe for other mediterranean countries are proposed. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Keywords: Integrated water management; Quality criteria; Wastewater treatment; Water recycling 1. Introduction The total annual precipitation in Greece and the total water potential are estimated to be 115, 375 106 m3 per year and 69, 000 106 m3 per year, respectively (including water inflows× from countries to the north). -

Under average meteorological conditions, the island is water-sufficient (969 mm precipitation; theoretical water potential 3284 hm3; and total water use 610 hm3). Agriculture is by far the greatest user of water (78% of total water use), followed by domestic use (21%). Despite the high average water availability, water scarcity events commonly occur, particularly in the eastern-south part of the island, driven by local climatic conditions and seasonal or geographical mismatches between water availability and demand. -
