Water is earth’s most precious
resource. And with the Morongo Basin's desert
climate, unpredictable rainfall, and growing population,
we cannot take our water supply for granted.
We must
use water wisely to ensure we have an adequate,
high-quality water supply, both now and in the
future. Not only do conservation efforts help save
this precious resource, they can also help reduce water
bills. It’s a win-win situation.
Conserving water is easy to do.
From our end,
the District tries to reduce water loss through water distribution system leaks by maintaining and upgrading our infrastructure regularly.
Visit our conservation links to learn easy ways to conserve water, both indoors and out, and get other conservation information. |

 Take
a look at our plant
guide (Adobe PDF) for ideas on using native,
low-water consuming native plants in your landscape
planning.
Planting native plants will require
less water, fertilizer and maintenance than others
grown in milder climates. Please check with
your local nursery for their suggestions about what
is best suited to your specific area.
Avoid
harvesting (or digging up) wild plants. The
disturbance to the ecosystem is irreversible, and
most native plants don't transplant well.
