Conservation

Water conservation tips we encourage are:

Water yards between 8:00 pm and 10:00 am.
Know how to turn off your automatic sprinkler system in case of a malfunction or it rains.
Adjust sprinklers so only your lawn or garden is watered and not the house, sidewalk or street.
Water your plants deeply but less frequently to encourage deep root growth and drought tolerance.
Do not wash sidewalks and driveway with water.
A running water hose can discharge up to 10 gallons per minute.
Run your dishwasher and clothes washer only when they are full. This could save you several hundred gallons per month.
Repair leaking faucets. A faucet dripping can waste up to 140 gallons per week.
Turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth. This can save up to 5 gallons of water per day per person.
