Water Supply Systems on Islands - Susak Island

Demanded quantities of fresh-water for supply of inhabitants on islands can be provided in different ways: catching the water from the island aquifers (from fresh-water lens formed on sea-water), catching and accumulating the rain-water, desalinization of sea-water or providing transportation of fresh-water from the mainland using tanker vessels or undersea pipelines. In this paper, as an example of a possible approach in solving the above explained problematic, the procedure of selecting the best alternative for the water supply of Susak Island in Croatia is presented.
