Water Management and Conservation
Water Storage and Coordinated Water Management
This project seeks to build upon the partners’ current success in fostering community water conservation, security, and awareness, by developing and implementing a county-wide pilot rebate and training program to promote household-level water storage through rainwater catchment.
In addition to providing rebates for rainwater catchment system construction, the project will also conduct two workshop/webinar series: one targeting homeowners interested in designing and installing their own systems, a second for professional landscapers to receive certification through the Qualified Water-Efficient Landscapers (QWEL) program in rainwater catchment system design and construction.
