To offset costs associated with implementing tasks identified in the Santa Clarita Valley Groundwater Sustainability Agency’s (SCV-GSA) Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP), SCV Water has been awarded $5.3 million through Round 2 of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Grant program administered by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR). The projects identified in the grant application are designed to strengthen the local

groundwater basin and continue a long history of ensuring its sustainability.

In recognition of its outstanding achievements in public relations, SCV Water received five prestigious awards from the Public Relations Society of America’s Los Angeles chapter (PRSALA). In addition to three PRism Awards and one Award of Excellence, the Agency’s “Drought Ready, SCV!” campaign was also named Best in Community Relations, earning the top prize over all other entrants from the non-profit, healthcare and government sectors.

As the holiday season shimmies closer, bringing with it the warmth of family, feasts, and festivities, let's embrace a spirit of water conservation. Join us in making a splash with conscious choices that conserve water and add an eco-friendly sparkle to your holiday cheer. From thawing your turkey with finesse to toasting with infused water, discover refreshing ways to make a difference this Thanksgiving.

Refrigerator Thawing: Thaw your Thanksgiving turkey in the refrigerator instead of using water. It takes several days, so plan ahead—24 hours for every 5 pounds. This saves water and ensures a delicious, moist turkey.

Dishwasher Efficiency: Run your dishwasher only when it's full. This maximizes its efficiency and reduces water consumption. Consider using the dishwasher's eco-friendly setting if available.

Reuse Rinse Water: When cleaning vegetables, use a large bowl of water to rinse them. Save this water and reuse it to water your plants or garden.

Let's sprinkle a bit of sustainability into our seasonal merriment and create memories that flow with joy while saving water. Cheers to a holiday season that's as green as it is grateful!
