‘‘(E) An evaluation of the military installation’s 
water security risks that could negatively impact 
mission assurance, including— 
‘‘(i) the location of the military installation 
in a drought-prone region; 
‘‘(ii) decreasing water levels or sources; 
‘‘(iii) effects of new defense water uses on 
the total water requirement of the military in-
stallation;

stallation that— 
‘‘(I) result from nondefense or defense 
adjacent requirements; and 
‘‘(II) could affect— 
‘‘(aa) the supply of water avail-
able for use by the military installa-
tion; 
‘‘(bb) the quality of such water; 
and
1567 
‘‘(cc) legal issues of the military 
installation, such as water rights dis-
putes. 
‘‘(F) An evaluation of the capacity of the mili-
tary installation’s water supply to withstand or 
quickly recover from water resource constraints, and 
the overall health of the aquifer basin of which the 
water supply is a part, including the robustness of 
the resource, redundancy, and ability to recover from 
disruption. 
‘‘(G) An evaluation of existing water metering 
and consumption at the military installation, consid-
ered at a minimum— 
‘‘(i) by type of installation activity, such as 
training, maintenance, medical, housing, and 
grounds maintenance and landscaping; and 
‘‘(ii) by fluctuations in consumption, in-
cluding peak consumption by quarter.

AT 
MOST AT-RISK INSTALLATIONS.—(1) Each Secretary of 
a military department shall— 
‘‘(A) identify the three military installations

lowing: 
‘‘(A) The nature of each risk to the military in-
stallation’s capacity and mission assurance.

metering to ensure more accurate assessments of de-
mand for water at the military installation. 
‘‘(D) An assessment of—

technologies, including cure-in-place pipe lining, to 
mitigate infrastructure degradation that leads to 
water loss. 
‘‘(e) EVALUATION
OF INSTALLATIONS
FOR NON-
POTABLE WATER REUSE.—(1) Each Secretary concerned 
shall evaluate each military installation under the 
jurisidiction of the Secretary identified pursuant to sub-

1570 
installation to mitigate risks to water security through the 
reuse of nonpotable for nondrinking water uses. 
‘‘(2) Such evaluation shall include the following: 
‘‘(A) An evaluation of alternative water sources 
to offset use of freshwater, including water recycling 
and harvested rainwater for use as nonpotable

PRACTICES.—(1) The Secretary concerned shall, to the 
maximum extent practicable, implement, at each military 
installation under the jurisdiction of the Secretary, land-
scaping management practices that mitigate risks to water 
security and enhance mission assurance by enabling great-
1571 
er quantities of water availability for operational, training, 
and maintenance requirements. 
‘‘(2) For military installations located in arid or semi- 
arid regions, such landscaping management practices shall 
include practices that avoid the cost of irrigation. 
‘‘(3) For military installations located in nonarid re-
gions, such landscaping management practices shall in-
clude the use of plants common to the region in which 
the installation is located and native grasses and plants 
that decrease water consumption requirements.
