Good news! After four years of serious water shortages, the Long Beach Water Department has put an end to many water use restrictions.
The official explanation for this development is heavy rains. However, the water department also says water conservation on the part of many Long Beach water users has also helped decrease water demand.
For instance, Cal State University–Long Beach has planted drought-tolerant vegetation and installed more efficient landscape irrigation systems to help reduce water consumption.
In addition, the university has installed more than 300 waterless urinals manufactured by Waterless Co. Inc., which have helped the school save more than 10.5 million gallons of water and $42,000 a year in water costs.
The cumulative effect of water conservation and abundant rain has helped this district address its water challenges today and possibly into the near future.
