Washington Water Service Company
takes water conservation seriously.

bullet Water is used everyday to meet the growing demands of business and industry, the environment and individual people. Clean and reliable water supplies cost money to maintain and manage. There is more to clean water than just turning on the tap!
 
bullet Water conservation can save money on water and utility bills and reduce the costs for sewer and septic services. Saving water today will insure that an adequate and clean water supply exists tomorrow.
 
bullet Water makes up approximately 67% of the mass in our bodies. Water keeps our blood, bones and brains healthy and also helps with digestion of food. Equally important, water also eliminates waste from our bodies. Clean water is essential to keeping every person healthy and alive.
 
bullet Water conservation is important to the entire planet. People, plants, animals, trees and fish depend on water for their survival. Salmon are a good example of a species that is severely threatened by inadequate supplies of cold, clean water. Efficient use of water is critical to a healthy, safe and clean environment.

Each one of us makes personal decisions routinely regarding how much water we use. On average, most people use approximately 80 gallons of water per day. Taking action to use our resources wisely will ensure that we all have enough fresh drinking water for the environment, future generations and ourselves.
