There are a lot of confusing and even scary messages out there about the drought, and it can be intimidating to sort out what you should do - and what you
must do - to comply with the state's drought restrictions.
Fortunately, Stay Green has been emphasizing water use efficiency for years, so we're well prepared to deal with these new restrictions and help make sure our clients are in compliance with the state's rules.
One thing is clear: We're all in this drought together, even if some communities are in better shape than others when it comes to water supply. T
he drought is a big-picture problem, and the state's new rules are designed to achieve immediate reductions in use, ranging from 8 to 38 percent of 2013 water usage depending on a community's historical uses and needs.
The new water restrictions target uses where the biggest reductions can be achieved: Outdoor uses such as landscaping and, in particular, irrigation of ornamental turf. Those who fail to comply can face stiff fines.
Let Stay Green's experts put their water efficiency experience to work for you.
