Wise water use is a goal that we are striving toward in Pleasanton, which takes a collective effort by all of us to accomplish. We have numerous programs dedicated to water efficiency, including one that uses recycled water to irrigate the Sports Park, which requires 86 million gallons of water to maintain every year!
The average American family can waste more than 11,000 gallons of water every year due to dripping faucets, running toilets, and other household leaks. In conjunction with World Water Day on Friday, March 22, the City will host “Fix a Leak Week”. Pleasanton residents can visit the city’s Utility Billing counter at 3333 Busch Road throughout March to see the Fix a Leak display and to pick up free dye strips for silent toilet leaks. The dye strips can be placed into the toilet tank and within 20 minutes if any blue color leaches into the bowl, you will know there is a leak.
For more information, please call (925) 931-5513 or visit www.PleasantonWaterConservation.com for a list of all our Water-Efficiency programs.
