every drop counts

California's interconnected water system serves over 30 million people and irrigates over 5,680,000 acres (2,300,000 ha) of farmland. As the world's largest, most productive, and most controversial water system, it manages over 40,000,000 acre feet (49 km3) of water per year.  [Wikipedia]

   Tips for
   UC Village Residents:

  • Take shorter showers.
  • Turn off the water while washing your hands, shaving or brushing your teeth.
  • Run washing machines with full loads.
  • Fix leaky faucets and toilets. Report leaks immediately to the Village Office at (510) 526-8505 ext. 210.
  • Not sure if your toilet leaks?  Drop some food color in the tank -- if any of the color shows up in the bowl, you have a leak.
  • Wash fruits and vegetables in a pan of water rather than running the tap.
  • Plant drought tolerant plants around your home and water less frequently but more deeply.
  • Water your garden when it's cool to minimize evaporation
