The District’s ‘Demand Management’ strategy also
serves as a reminder that we live in a semi-arid region -- while a water
shortage does not currently exist, long-term ‘abuse’ of our water supplies can
jeopardize their future sustainability.
Customers should also be aware that voluntary water conservation measures,
can help reduce depletion of the aquifers (our major water source), minimize
the need for supplementary sources, and help hold down future water rate
increases.
Water Conservation Tips With the high
heat of summer and outdoor water use at its peak throughout PBHMD, here are
some great conservation tips for you and your.
1.
Water as
infrequently as possible, without causing undue stress on the lawn.
2.
Give your lawn
only enough water to stay healthy, minimizing puddles and runoff. Water between
the hours of 9 p.m. and 9 a.m., when its cooler, less windy and less likely to
evaporate.
3.
Mow/mulch your
lawn with a sharp blade, setting your mower deck height to at least 3” (or
higher).
4.
Postpone
fertilization until fall
5.
Concentrate your
watering efforts on trees and shrubs (especially young ones) and apply mulch at
their base – woody plants are more difficult and expensive to replace than
grass.
6.
Make sure your
irrigation system is operating correctly and sprinkler heads are properly
adjusted so water is not wasted on streets and driveways.
7.
Use broom instead
of hose to clean driveways and side walks.
