Saving Water at Work and Around Town
- Promote water conservation at the workplace. Have water conservation tips put in the employee orientation manual.
- Support projects that will lead to an increased use of reclaimed wastewater for irrigation and other uses.
- Promote water conservation in community newsletters, on bulletin boards and by example.
- Report significant water losses (broken pipes, misdirected sprinklers, abandoned or free-flowing wells, etc.) to the property owner, local authorities or your water management district.
- Encourage your school system/local government to promote a water conservation program.
- Make sure your visitors understand the need for, and benefits of, water conservation.
- Conserve water because it is the right thing to do. Don’t waste water just because someone else is footing the bill, such as when you are staying at a hotel.
