Water Conservation

Conservation is the benficial reduction in water loss, use, or waste. The Conservation Department accomplishes the reduction in water loss, waste or use by the implementation of water conservation or water efficient measures. A water conservation measure is an action, behavioral change, device, technology, or improved design or process implemented to reduce water loss, waste, or use. Water efficiency is a toll of water conservation and reduces water demand. The value and cost-effectiveness of a water efficiency measure must be evaluated in relation to its effects on the use and cost of other natural resources.

The goal of the conservation department is the sustainability of water for future generations as well as the protection of the environment.
