🌾Drought Watch & Water Conservation Tips

Even if your area isn’t officially in a drought, many regions are experiencing below-average rainfall and lower water tables. Conservation isn’t just for city water users; it matters just as much for private well owners.

Top Tips for Summer Water Conservation:

  • Install low-flow showerheads and faucet aerators.
  • Water plants early in the morning or late in the evening and use only native plants and grasses.
  • Fix any household leaks promptly.
  • Use mulch to retain soil moisture in gardens.
  • DO NOT use your well to fill pools, hot tubs, or for other large uses. Use a water delivery service instead.

Every drop you save helps your well recover and reduces your risk of over-pumping or water shortages.
