Water Conservation Kits to Be Distributed
Mayor Tom Bradley and two environmental groups announced plans Wednesday to distribute water conservation kits in Los Angeles to help offset the effects of the current drought.
“Drought conditions still haunt us and water conservation continues to be essential if we want to reduce sewage flow into the Santa Monica Bay or protect treasures such as Mono Lake,” Bradley said at a news conference on Ocean Front Walk in Venice.
One hundred thousand water conservation kits will be delivered free to single-family homes under the program.
The city’s Water Conservation Law, which took effect last year, requires all commercial buildings and apartment buildings with more than 10 units to install low-flow shower heads and water-saving devices in toilets by January of this year.
