Summer Water Use

Here's a little pat on the back for Summerlanders - we're moving in the right direction.

From the Corporation of the District of Summerland site:
As occurred earlier this summer, Summerlanders continue to employ water conserving practices, but recently there has been significant benefit from rainfall, and the weather takes most of the credit. Total water use in August was 1,375 acre feet compared with 2,092 in 2002 and 2,091 in 2003. In July people made their best showing, using 77% of 2002 consumption, even though the weather was hotter and there was no significant rain.
