For Objective Long-term Show long-term objectives
Impact Report Based on the objective for Los Alamos County to realize a 3% decrease in residential and comercial landscape water use. The first hard data has been analyzed with regards to water conservation in the county for the past five years. Seasonal outdoor water use has steadily decreased (42%) since the water conservation education program began in earnest in 2002. The reduction is attributed to reduced vegetation in neighborhoods affected by the Cerro Grande Fire, increased precipitation since 2002 (height of drought) and water conservation efforts made by the Agent.
