Smart Water Use ...         Easy Ways to Save Water

 
...in dairy farming
Local dairy farmers are doing their part. They're making a big effort this summer to see how they can use water more efficiently in operations and reduce water loss. If you see their Smart Water Use bumper sticker, give 'em a "honk" in support!
 
 
...at home
We can all do our part at home, too.  Here are a few simple ways to save water.
 
Outdoors
* Water the garden in the early morning or evening to reduce evaporation
* Use a broom instead of the hose to clean paths and drives
* Use a bucket to wash the car. Don't leave the tap running
* Check taps, pipes and connections regularly for possible leaks.
Inside
* Do full loads in the clothes washer and dishwasher.
* Take shorter showers and shallower baths
* Don't run the water when brushing your teeth.
* Fix a leaky toilet or dripping tap as soon as possible.
 
Water is a precious resource.
We can all do our part to conserve it.
