Date & Time:

The Drought Contingency & Water Conservation training will be held on the following date & time:

June 14 | 9:00AM-12:00PM

This training is being held in Pacific Time.

Description:

Have you thought about what you would do if drought impacted your water supply? Have you seen falling groundwater tables & wondered if your water will continue to flow into the future? Nevada is the driest state in the nation. The supply of water in Nevada requires wise management in an area where water resources are limited & cycles of drought are common. Water conservation has proven to be an effective mechanism for reducing the demand on limited sources of water with the goal of ensuring that the vital water resource is available into the future. Planning your water system's response to drought can help to reduce the impact of drought on the system while taking steps to reduce demand during times when drought is impacting your water supply.

Participants will learn:

·        Current water supply & drought information for their region

·        Water conservation measures that can be implemented to reduce water usage

·        How to conduct a water audit & reduce water loss in the water system

·        Education, incentives & rate structures to promote water conservation

·        Drought contingency planning to ensure the supply of potable water

Target audience: Operators, management, board members, water system personnel or anyone with an interest in better understanding the value of operating a safe drinking water system.

This training will be hosted online on GoToTraining.
