SAVE WATER AND MONEY WHILE BEING PART OF
THE POLLUTION SOLUTION THIS SUMMER!

With just a few simple changes to your outdoor water use, you can help reduce runoff pollution into our local creeks and beaches. Overwatering and inefficient irrigation systems can cause runoff, which can carry pollutants from your landscape to our storm drains, which flow to our ocean. Here are a few tips and water-efficient devices that can help you be part of the solution to pollution!

Watering before sunrise or after 6 p.m.
will reduce water loss due to evaporation.
Wind also tends to die down in the early
morning, so the water will irrigate the lawn
as intended.

These are designed to produce larger drops of water or streams that resist wind, prevent evaporation and reduce overwatering. Rebates for water-efficient sprinklers can be found at mnwd.com/rebates.

Weather-based irrigation controllers use information about your plants, soil and weather conditions to automatically apply the right amount of water year-round.

Rebates of up to $330 per controller are available! Visit mnwd.com/rebates for more information.

Adjust your irrigation timer from one long cycle to multiple, shorter cycles with an hour between irrigation cycles and allow the water to infiltrate into the ground so it does not run off of your property.
