Newton Fish dead?

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]It’s the water users that are responsible for the amount of water in the reservoirs. That is everyone who uses water to shower, wash cloths and dishes and uses it to keep the landscape green. Even though most of the water in the state goes to agriculture a good portion of the water in the northern part is use with in the city. Most farmer have not even been receiving enough water to plant their entire field do to the fact that their share of water as been cut back. Outdoor water use in the city for the last three years has gone down however there is still room to reduce the amount of water used. I’m not in favor of reducing the amount of landscape or letting what we have burn up we just need to use what we have more wisely. Many farmers are producing more crops today with less water than before by using better irrigation technology this attitude needs to be adopted by those that use water on their landscape. Many landscapes have 3 times as much water applied to them as need if the right amount of water was applied to landscape the amount of water used would be reduced by more than half. 66% of the water is used on landscapes this means there can be a saving of 33% water that is used. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a 1/3 of the water used last year still in the reservoirs? Landscape owner can reduce water use by tuning up and fixing their sprinkler system and adjusting the controller on a regular basis to water to the needs of the landscape or not even water some areas at all.[/size][/font]
