Riverside Highland Water Company Thanks Water Customers

In July of this year, the California State Water Resources Control Board announced mandatory water restrictions upon every resident in the State, as well as requiring all water agencies to implement conservation measures designed to reduce water use by their customers. While most of our neighboring water agencies issued mandatory water restrictions, we at Riverside Highland Water Company requested voluntary water conservation of all of our customers such as limiting outside watering to four days per week. Since Aug. 1, we have been monitoring your water conservation and we are very pleased to report that you, the water users in our service area, have responded. The amount of water pumped from Company owned water wells and delivered to customers in August of this year is considerably less than August of 2013. Because the State of California has not indicted the amount of water reduction that is required, and the State could eventually force us to restrict water use even more, we would like to remind you to continue to look for ways to conserve water. While reducing indoor water use is important, the majority of the water use is outside. Historically, September has been the time of year to reduce outside water use. Remember that even though September can have warm days, the days are much shorter so the sun is not beating down on your lawns and plants as much as it does during the longer days in July and August. Also, the best way to conserve water is to fix water leaks both inside and outside of the home. Once again, Riverside Highland Water Company would like to thank our customers for their water conservation efforts. Please continue do your part to help save water for the benefit of our community’s future.
