RWA Requests Customers Reduce Water Use By 10%

Prolonged hot weather and more people working from home due to COVID-19 has resulted in a 60% increase in demand.

June 24, 2020

The Regional Water Authority (RWA) is asking all of its customers to conserve water and to reduce their water use by 10 percent. As a result of the prolonged hot and dry weather conditions, and many more people working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the RWA has seen an unprecedented 60 percent increase in water use during the past week. This higher-than-normal system demand has resulted in some customers experiencing discolored water intermittently over the past several days.
