What are your dinner plans? 🥗 🌮 🍔

When you’re cooking up something delicious tonight, remember to be water-wise! Here are a few tips for conservation in the kitchen:

1. Cook food in as little water as possible. This will also help retain more nutrients.
2. Use the proper size pans for cooking — large pans require more cooking water than necessary.

BCVWD is taking every opportunity to recharge water while coming out of the worst drought on record. That’s why we partnered with San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency (SGPWA) to install an algaecide injection feeder at the Mountain View turnout to control algae in SGPWA’s ponds.

BCVWD staff supported efforts to set up the injection based on their prior experience using EarthTec algaecide at the Noble Creek Recharge Facility. The collaboration supports SGPWA in bringing the maximum amount of water possible into the area.

We were happy to share institutional knowledge with our partners and to ensure we bring as much water to the region as possible during this exceptional year of rain and snowfall.

Welcome fall! Water usage may go down as the weather cools, but conservation is still important. If you’re watering outdoor plants, remember they require less water in the fall as daylight hours and the sun’s intensity decrease. 🍂🍁

It’s a great time to be water-wise when we care for our indoor plants! Here are some tips:

1. Collect the water you use for rinsing produce to water houseplants.
2. Did you accidentally drop an ice cube? Don’t throw it in the sink. Hydrate your houseplant instead.
3. Keep a bucket in the shower to catch water as it warms up. Use this to water houseplants.

This Patriot Day, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001. Gone, but never forgotten. #WeRemember #PatriotDa

BCVWD and Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District celebrated the completion of our joint stormwater project at a ribbon cutting yesterday!

The project will reduce area flooding and conserve runoff for future use by capturing 150 to 500 acre-feet of water annually into an underground aquifer. That’s enough water to supply as many as 900 local families for a year!
