Harmonized water supply and usage balance for all water regions of the study area in the year 2000

All numbers expressed in million cubic meters (MCM). All numbers rounded to 1 MCM.
Note: "Import" and "Export" refers to water transfer from/to outside the study
area (i.e. the 6 water regions), while "Transfer from/to another region" refers to water transfer between the 6 water regions; the gap between "transfers to" (181 MCM) and "transfers from" (163 MCM) indicates water losses during transfer.
