Water reuse can include reusing water from many sources. Sometimes it is used water from bathing or dishwashing, and other times it is managing agricultural runoff. It may also be keeping/extending the water you have in reservoirs or groundwater and taking measures to reduce evaporationall in support of reuse. Reusing waste water is also very popular worldwide, especially for irrigation. Other names include “water recycling,” “water purification,” “reclaimed water,” “recycled water,” “reuse water,” and “repurified water.”

Water reuse is a well-known concept and part of the [[3R (water) – Recharge, Retention and Reuse|3R process (recharge, retention, reuse)]]. In this way, managing water well is thought of as a "buffer" to insure consistent supplies - A buffer between the user and the bad effects of drought or an unreliable water resource.
