July is Smart Irrigation Month
Join us for Smart Irrigation Month! This public awareness campaign is dedicated to promoting efficient outdoor water usage and safeguarding our community water supplies for now and the future. Throughout July, the prime month for irrigation, we're focusing on adopting cooler, smarter, and less watering practices. When making changes to your irrigation schedule, remember to:
- Water Cooler! Water in the morning before 10am or in the evening after 6pm when it's cool. In the middle of the day, temperatures are at their peak and water will evaporate much quicker.
- Water Smart! Adjust your watering schedule regularly to account for seasonal weather conditions. Get a custom schedule at BeyondTheDrought.com.
- Water Less! Replace broken sprinkler heads and adjust the arc to avoid runoff. Excessive runoff can pollute our local waterways and be costly.
