Utilities
Utilities are an important piece in the road map to water efficiency.
You can implement water-efficiency
strategies that incorporate water-saving technology along with
innovative management practices to use less water while delivering
an unchanged or improved level of service to consumers. By becoming
water-efficient, you can not only reduce overhead costs, but also
help consumers and businesses save money. You may be eligible to
become a WaterSense partner
if you are a utility that promotes water efficiency.
Follow these simple steps to become a leader in water efficiency:
- Join WaterSense.
- Develop a water conservation plan.
- Make system improvements to reduce water loss. For examples
of how other utilities have implemented water-efficiency practices,
please see Cases
in Water Conservation: How Efficiency Programs Help Water Utilities
Save Water and Avoid Costs (PDF) (54 pp, 555K, About
PDF).
- Read the Using Water Efficiently:
Ideas for Utilities fact sheet.
- Develop sustainable
water infrastructure through enhancing utility management,
saving water through efficiency measures, cooperative ventures
via the watershed approach, and full-cost pricing.
