Save Water, Save MoneyThe average family spends $1,100 on water yearly. Save up to $350 by installing WaterSense devices and EnergyStar appliances.

Save Water, Save EnergyUsing water uses energy. A household with an electric water heater spends 25% of their bill just to heat water. By installing water-efficient shower heads and faucets, you can decrease your energy and water bills.  

Save Water, Save Streams 

By using water more efficiently, you will keep more water in the ground which helps keep water in our streams. Streams rely on groundwater to replenish flow during our long dry summer months. 


It Matters!Conserving water, using native plants and good land stewardship now will ensure our region is protected for generations.
