  1. Water customers are asked to voluntarily reduce water use by
    1. checking your toilets, showerheads, and faucets for leaks
    2. checking under sinks for wet spots, leaking supply lines, fittings, or valves
    3. checking your irrigation system for leaks, repairing as needed
    4. sweep driveways, sidewalks, and patios instead of hosing them off
