Water Watch: Wednesday, July 16

Posted on July 17, 2008July 17, 2008 by Staff

LAKE LEVELS

University Lake: 1’ 2.25” below full
Cane Creek Reservoir: 4’ 6.4” below full

PRECIPITATION THIS MONTH

Jones Ferry Water Treatment Plant: 5.25”
Cane Creek Reservoir: 1.54”

CUSTOMER WATER DEMAND

Past 7 days (average): 8.594 million gallons
Past 30 days (average): 9.001 million gallons

Estimated Water Supply remaining: 314 days worth (about 10 months), based on average demand in the last 30 days and assuming no further rainfall.

Tip: Leave lower branches on trees and shrubs and allow leaf litter to accumulate on top of the soil. This keeps the soil cooler and reduces evaporation.
