Letters to the Editor

What a Waste

It is discouraging to see the number of homes whose sprinklers are still running during the current storms. Despite the rains of the last few days, state water reserves are still extremely low. All of our yards have gotten a thorough drenching and will not need watering for many, many weeks. Take advantage of all the free water from the sky and in the process help alleviate the strain on the state’s water reserves by turning off your automatic sprinkler systems.
