Water Conservation Is Everyone’s Business. Make It Yours. Please Conserve Now!
The drought is back. After an encouraging early winter season of storms, California has reverted to dry conditions. However, Southern Californians have what it takes to conserve and preserve our precious water supplies. Together we have successfully navigated a number of major droughts over the last three decades. Although this year marks the third consecutive severe drought year in our state, because of sound planning, smart investments and a long-lasting conservation ethic, we are well prepared to “weather” this event.
The Governor recently called upon all Californians to reduce water use by 15% to mitigate drought impacts. We do not know how long this drought will last, but every drop saved today will be one we can use for tomorrow. Although there has been major progress in reducing water use, we all need to do more. Here is how you can help to reduce water consumption and save on your water bill.
Avoid wasteful water practices at all times including: elimination of over-watering and excessive runoff from landscapes, limiting outdoor watering duration time, no outdoor watering between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., no washing down of hard or paved surfaces, no outdoor watering for a minimum of 48 hours after a measurable rain event, no outdoor watering exceeding 3 days per week; and fix all leaks promptly.
