Spanish term or phrase: aprovechamiento de agua
Alguien puede ayudarme con la traducción de "aprovechamiento de agua"???
Es un presentación PowerPoint así que no tengo mucho contexto:
"Aguas superficiales y subterráneas:
a) Aprovechamiento aguas públicas
b) Aprovechamiento aguas privadas"

Yo lo había traducido como:
"Groundwater and surface water:
a)Harnessing public water resources
b) Harnessing private water resources"

Aunque no estoy para nada segura...
Muchas gracias a todos por adelantado.
