Saving water is now more important than ever. In the spirit of neighbor helping neighbor, I wanted to alert you to the following: � Your sprinklers are watering the pavement. Adjusting your sprinkler heads to prevent over spray and runoff will save precious water. �The application of potable water to any driveway or sidewalk is prohibited. � You have a broken sprinkler, and/or your irrigation system is leaking. A broken sprinkler can waste 10 gallons per minute or a 100 gallons in a 10 minute cycle. Making repairs right away is important to save water. � Your sprinklers don't need to run every day. Most land- scapes do fine with only 2 or 3 days a week of watering, even less in the winter. To determine when to water, step on your grass. If it springs back, it doesn't need water. �Using a hose that dispenses potable water to wash a motor vehicle, unless the hose is fitted with a shut-off nozzle is prohibited. ❑ W a Q V cI� 0 z a J {�� ` � Y r� � �. � � � • Water your lawn only when i in the morning or later in the atures are cooler. �5��a �� q�� i�€ • Check your sprinkler system � sprinklers so only your lawn c watered and not the sidewc �SAVE: 12-15 gc�llons/ec��h t • Choose a water-efficient irric drip irrigation for trees, shrub ��'��; 7 � ��Ql�ns/��ch tir�E • Water deeply but less frequE healthier and stronger land� • Use mulch around trees and oration and keep the soil co improve the soil and preven (5,4ifE: 20-30 gallons/each t i 000 sq. ft.) • Plant drought-resistant trees ��E: 2��30 ��B��s/each� 6 i��0 ��a ��e� Information about evapotrc weather based controllers i �nrww,cuwc�,�r� �ncl wwvw. �• Use a broom to clean drive� � F A IC E R S F I E L D Public Works Department Nick Fidler - Public Works Director PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Mike Coni Friday, August 8, 2014 Street SuK (661) 326-: Intersection Paving Project The City of Bakersfield has a project to improve the ride quality intersections of Stockdale at Old River Road, and Stockdale at Californic Beginning at 10:00 p.m. Friday, August 8th and continuing through Saturday, August 9th, City crews will be working, along with a contrac and pave the intersections.
