Residents Urged To Reduce Water Consumption

Southern California water agency urges residents to reduce consumption

Metropolitan Water District plans to issue a nonbinding supply alert, recommending that cities enforce conservation laws already on the books.

Thank you: Excerpts from a complete article by Molly Hennessy-Fiske, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer June 7, 2008

The public agency that distributes water to much of the Southland is urging residents to reduce consumption by 10% to 20% to protect reserves during a worsening drought.

"We're coming to the point in Southern California life where there's no room for water waste," said Anthony Fellow, vice chairman of the board of the Metropolitan Water District.

The agency already plans to increase the rate it charges cities by 10% for each of the next three calendar years, a spokesman said.

The last time the board issued a similar alert, in 1991, residents reduced consumption by 30%, mostly through indoor measures such as installing water-saving shower heads, Kightlinger said. Now the agency is encouraging residents to conserve in their yards by installing sprinklers, sweeping instead of spraying driveways and planting drought-resistant shrubs.

"It's time for the three-minute shower, time to stop letting the tap run when you brush your teeth. We want these to become permanent changes in Southern California."
