How can I conserve water?

You can be a participant in our conservation plan by implementing the following recommended immediate, short-term and long-term water saving tips:

Immediate Measures:

• Do not over water your lawn. Water in short, repeated intervals for best absorption. Only water every three days in the summer and 10 to 14 days in the winter.
• Water the lawn early in the morning or in the evening when evaporation is less likely to occur. Avoid watering in the heat of the day or when it is windy.
• Make sure your sprinkler is watering your lawn and plants only, not the driveway, sidewalk or street.
• Only run the dishwasher and clothes washer when they are fully loaded.

Short-term measures:

• Repair dripping faucets and leaky toilets. Dripping faucets can waste about 2,000 gallons of water each year. Leaky toilets can waste as much as 200 gallons each day.
• Place a two- to four-inch layer of mulch around plants and trees to avoid excess evaporation.

Long-term measures:

• Install a trickle or drip irrigation system for a slow, steady supply of water to the plant roots.
• Consider native plants in your landscaping. They require less care, and many do not require supplemental watering once they are established. Check with your local nursery for native plant species.

Please help conserve your valuable water resources by conserving water use.
