Palmdale Water District Sponsors Cash for Grass program


admin May 19, 2011

PALMDALE, CA May 19, 2011- PWD has been sponsoring a “Cash for Grass” program for customers within the Palmdale Water District service area for two years. On May 25, 2011, three customers will be presented with certificates of appreciation and rebate checks from the District for converting their yards into water wise landscapes. The District would like to thank Larry & Mattie Thompson, Elsie and Lorenso Gaubo and John and Stacy Nemth for completing the “Cash for Grass” program.

The District has approximately 112 customers that have signed up for the program and approximately 29 have completed their water wise landscapes and received checks from the District. The City of Palmdale and the Palmdale School District have also signed up to convert some of their landscapes into water wise areas.

The PWD urges its customers to find ways to use water more efficiently with one or more of the rebates the District has to offer.

  1. Cash for Grass- Renovate your landscape into a beautiful water wise landscape.
  2. MP Rotators- Renovate your pop-up sprinkler heads to MP rotators, which will bring up the efficiency of your irrigation system.
  3. Smart Controllers- Change out your timer/controller to a SWAT tested smart controller that waters the amount of water your landscape needs, not what you think it needs!
  4. Washing Machines-change out the old washer for a new 5.0 or less water factor washing machine.
  5. Toilets- Change out that old toilet for an HET 1.28 gpf or dual flush toilet.

Call (661) 456-1020 for more information on PWD’s rebate programs. About Palmdale Water District

Outstanding team work‼️

💧 A New Chapter Begins for the Palmdale Ditch 💧
Today, we officially broke ground on a historic project that will convert the 1880s Palmdale Ditch into a modern, enclosed pipeline. Once completed, it will save about 1,500 acre-feet of water annually.

This multi-million dollar investment, funded in part by grants from the CA Department of Water Resources and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, ensures a more climate resilient future for Palmdale and surrounding communities.

A special thank you to our staff and project partners at Garney Construction and Hazen and Sawyer for helping bring this milestone to life. The energy at today’s event was filled with optimism, collaboration, and a shared commitment to the water conversation ahead. 💙

💧 Comienza un nuevo capítulo para la acequia de Palmdale 💧
Hoy hemos puesto oficialmente la primera piedra de un proyecto histórico que convertirá la acequia de Palmdale, construida en 1880, en una moderna tubería cerrada. Una vez terminado, ahorrará unos 1.500 acres-pies de agua al año.

Esta inversión multimillonaria, financiada en parte por subvenciones del Departamento de Recursos Hídricos de California y la Oficina de Reclamación de los Estados Unidos, garantiza un futuro más resistente al clima para Palmdale y las comunidades circundantes.

Un agradecimiento especial a nuestro personal y a los socios del proyecto en Garney Construction y Hazen and Sawyer por ayudar a hacer realidad este hito. La energía del acto de hoy rebosaba optimismo, colaboración y un compromiso compartido con el futuro del agua. 💙

The #bestcrewever made smart adjustments to keep everyone safe! They moved the air-vac equipment out of the way to make sure the walkway stays clear while nearby ramps are being updated. Pedestrian safety is always our top priority. 💙
