Water management aims to ensure that there is enough water available for various purposes, such as drinking, irrigation, and industrial use.

Water treatment is not a component of integrated water management, as it is a specific process for removing contaminants from water.

A water budget is used to estimate the amount of water available in a region, determine the demand for water in a region, and identify potential water shortages.

Dams and reservoirs are not water conservation measures, as they store water rather than reducing water use.

A water management plan outlines the strategies and actions needed to manage water resources in a sustainable manner.

Water conservation reduces water use, which can lead to reduced water bills, increased water availability, and improved water quality. It does not lead to increased flooding.

Surface water, such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs, is the primary source of water for most public water supplies.

Natural erosion is not a type of water pollution, as it is a natural process that occurs over time.

Water treatment plants remove contaminants from water, add fluoride to water, and adjust the pH of water to make it safe for drinking.

Drip irrigation systems are not water distribution systems, as they are used to deliver water directly to plants.

Water pricing systems are used to generate revenue for water utilities, discourage water waste, and promote water conservation.

Dams and reservoirs are not water conservation programs, as they store water rather than reducing water use.

Water resources management agencies develop and implement water management plans, regulate water use, and protect water quality.

Solar panels are not water management infrastructure, as they are used to generate electricity rather than manage water.

Water quality monitoring programs are used to assess the quality of water, identify sources of water pollution, and develop water quality standards.
