- Reducing Water Government Cost
-
My experience shows that reducing costs can be done by utilizing a reinvention study, changing agency policies. working on mutual aid and equipment exchanges with local agencies and re-exmaming Board expenses.
- Beach Pollution Reduction That Improves the environment While Saving Money
-
The over-watering of Parks, Schools, golf courses and residential lawns causes urban runoff that pollutes the shoreline, closes beaches, and makes visitor sick.
Sensible water conseravation technology is available that will reduce urban runoff and beach pollution, expand the capacity of our existing water supply, while not impacting customers life styles.
- Sensible water conservation
-
Water conservation measures for inside residences, on the lawn and in business and industry are available and are being developed. Technology applications that do not change life styles can resuce water usage to save water system-wide form 6000-7000 homes or 15% of the present water usage in the Cost Mesa service area.
