Water Conservation
Conserving water resources makes sense all around! By doing the same with less water, homeowners save on their water bill, streams and lakes receive less dirty runoff, and energy intensive water treatment plants don’t need to work as hard.
Several small and large scale water conservation technologies are currently being used. Some of the more common practices are listed below.
| Structural Practices | Non-Structural Practices |
| Rainwater Harvesting | Use of native and water-wise plants |
| Rain barrels | Efficient irrigation |
| Rain gardens | Clearing of driveway debris by sweeping instead of hosing |
| Low-flow toilets and shower heads | Reducing wasteful water use |
| Flow restrictors for taps | |
| Water efficient appliances | |
| Grey water recycling |
