Water Wise Words


Storm Water

Tip of the Month
Do not hose down hard surfaces such as driveways and sidewalks. Sweeping up residual sediment, leaves and landscaping waste and place within green waste bins to prevent them from being in contact with rain or irrigation water where it can be carried away to the river and/or into a nearby creek.
 
Water Conservation

Tip of the Month
For areas around trees and shrubs, be sure to have 3-4 inches of mulch in place to reduce evaporation and build healthy soil.  Mulch is readily available throughout the County and available for free pickup or affordable delivery.
