That's why the water resource in Taiwan is so insufficient that we must rely on building reservoirs to meet any need for using water of every day life, industry, or agriculture. However, the growing demands for using water and the unstable rainfall make the efficient manipulation and exploitation of the water resource become more and more important, especially how to distribute the water resource. Therefore, the Government should establish policies on the future development and citizens' rights to meet the demands for using water from any aspects. According to the result of the statistical analysis, recently, the amount of using water from every day life in Taipei area occupies 64% of the whole, another one from agriculture occupies 29%, and the other one from industry occupies at least 7%. With the statistical analysis and the tendency of the policies, we are able to presume that the quantity of using water from every day life will be 1,013 million tons, another one from industry will be 123 million tons, and the other one from agriculture will be 642 million tons by 2021. The Government is planning to provide water for the whole Taipei area by the Feitsui Reservoir, but the largest water supply of the Feitsui Reservoir is simply 208 million tons more than the presumed demands of water in Taipei area. If the water supply system in Taipei area doesn't get improved or be allocated inappropriately in the future, either can lead to the risk of water shortage.
