CLWA is encouraging all business owners and residents to conserve water by reducing consumption by 20% during this time of severe drought.  Visit clwa.org for practical ideas on how to save water.  One suggested way to conserve is to ask your server the next time you are at a restaurant not to bring you water unless requested.
