Reclaimed Water Conservation Needed

To alleviate reclaimed water pressure issues and potential shortages, Pinellas County Utilities is appealing to all county reclaimed water customers to voluntarily limit irrigation immediately. Minimal rainfall and overuse of reclaimed water in the area are stressing the available supply of reclaimed water. If current dry conditions and overuse continue, officials may have to implement mandatory restrictions in order for the system to recover. Pinellas County Utilities is trying to prevent implementing mandatory restrictions. Please help conserve our valuable reclaimed water resource by irrigating wisely and efficiently.
