HEY! Water conservation is no laughing matter!
Each and every one of us can use our precious water supplies more efficiently. Sometimes, it is just a matter of avoiding waste.
Take shorter showers!
Even a one or two minute shorter shower can save up to 700 gallons of water a month. Consider turning the water off while you soap up and wash your hair…and turn it back on to rinse off
Save water and money in the Kitchen and Laundry
Here’s where you’ll find some more thirsty appliances. Depending on how old these workhorses are, you might realize a significant savings in the long run -- in both water and energy usage -- if you replace them.

Don’t make me come over there…STOP WASTING WATER!
A single dripping faucet can waste more water in one day than a family member would need for drinking in a whole week!
