💡 Did you know? 💡According to the EPA, the average household loses enough water each year to wash 280 loads of laundry, take 600 showers, or meet a family’s water needs for an entire month — all because of leaks that often go unnoticed. 💧 Even small leaks can waste big amounts of water. If your water bill seems unusually high, it could be a sign of a hidden leak. Don’t wait to be surprised — be proactive!

💧 Arizona’s been living with long-term drought since 1994, but the challenge doesn’t stop at our borders. The Colorado River — which provides nearly 40% of our state’s water — has been in severe drought since 2000. With pressure coming from both local and regional shortages, careful planning and smart water management are more critical than ever.In 2003, Arizona launched the Governor’s Drought Task Force, laying the foundation for the Arizona Drought Preparedness Plan. This plan helps guide everything from annual water use to long-term conservation strategies, making sure communities statewide — including those outside Active Management Areas — have tools to adapt.Supporting this work are three key groups:🔹 Drought Monitoring Technical Committee – Shares real-time climate and drought data.🔹 Interagency Coordinating Group – Advises state leadership on drought status and response.🔹 Local Drought Impact Groups – Bring communities together to monitor, educate, and take action.These partnerships are Arizona’s front line in addressing drought — because protecting our water today means securing our future tomorrow. 🌵💙#ArizonaDrought #ColoradoRiverDrought #WaterConservation #EveryDropCounts ...
