Implementation Program The City of Roseville is committed to implement the following measures: · No sustained increase in capita water consumption. · Implement an aggressive public education program including making water conservation literature available to residents. · Make special public education efforts to increase efficiency of lawn sprinkling by infonning residents of the inefficiency of lawn sprinkling between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. · Make an effort to identify and replace inaccurate meters by checks of several randomly selected older meters from throughout the City. · Ensure the ability to establish and implement emergency water rates when necessary. · Annually review unaccounted-for water records and identify and address any significant increases. Official Controls Current ordinances and regulations used to achieve objectives and components of the water supply plan include the sprinkling (including other non-essential use) bans discussed in Section II.D.2, for short-term demand reductions. Potential measures for achieving long term conservation, which primarily involve improving water use efficiencies, are presented in Section III. Page 15 of 22
