	Public supply treated includes water that does not meet public drinking water standards and is either treated through a desalination process or diluted with fresher water to meet standards.
	The procedure used to estimate domestic self-supplied withdrawals changed for 2000 from previous years as a different per capita used to calculate withdrawals.
	Agricultural includes water withdrawn for crop irrigation, livestock, and fish farming purposes.
	Recreational irrigation includes water used for all turf grass (golf, commercial, industrial, and public) irrigation. This category was accounted for under Agricultural from 1975 through 1984.
