6792, the AWWA bookstore 800/926-7337 or DNR Waters 651/259-5703 far information <br />regarding educational materials and formats that are available. <br />6. Retrofitting Programs. Education and incentive programs aimed at replacing inefficient <br />plumbing fixtures and appliances can help reduce per capita water use as well as energy <br />costs. It is recommended that communities develop a long-term plan to retrofit public <br />buildings with water efficient plumbing fixtures and that the benefits of retrofitting be <br />included in public education programs. You may also want to contact local electric or gas <br />suppliers to see if they are interested in developing a showerhead distribution program for <br />customers in your service area. <br />A study by the AWWA Research Foundation (Residential End Uses of Water, 1999) found that the average <br />indoor water use for a non-conserving home is 69.3 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). The average indoor <br />water use in a conserving home is 45.2 gpcd and most of the decrease in water use is related to water efficient <br />plumbing fia�tures and appliances that can reduce water, sewer and energy costs. In Minnesota, certain electric <br />and gas providers are required (Minnesota Statute 216B.241) to fund programs that will conserve energy <br />resources and some utilities have distributed water efficient showerheads to customers to help reduce energy <br />demands required to supply hot water. <br />Retrofitting Programs. Describe any education or incentive programs to encourage the <br />retrofitting of inefficient plumbing fixtures (toilets, showerheads, faucets, and aerators) or <br />appliances (washing machines). <br />Educate public through news letter articles and website postings as to the benefits of retrofitting <br />fixtures and appliances. <br />Plan Approval. Water Supply Plans must be approved by the Department of Natural Resources <br />(DNR) every ten years. Please submit plans for approval to the following address: <br />DNR Waters or Submit electronically to <br />Water Permit Programs Supervisor wateruse(cr�,dnr.state.mn.us. <br />500 Lafayette Road <br />St. Paul, MN 55155-4032 <br />Adoption of Plan. All DNR plan approvals are contingent on the formal adoption of the plan by <br />the city council or utility board. Please submit a certificate of adoption (example available) or <br />other action adopting the plan. <br />Metropolitan Area communities are also required to submit these plans to the Metropolitan <br />Council. Please see PART IV. ITEMS FOR METROPOLITAN AREA PUBLIC SUPPLIERS. <br />lr-Water supply�lan2 template[1] <br />22 <br />
