<br />WHERE lIVE ARE TODA YI <br />Green Mountain Water and Sanitation District currently divides its service area into <br />only two categories, residential and commercial. Current vvater use analysis indicates that <br />in the service area, single-family demand is approximately 65% of the total annual vvater <br />demand. Only a small percentage (betlNeen 2.5% and 5%) is unaccounted for, whereas <br />the balance is made up of conrnercial use of 3D%. <br /> <br />People and Resources <br /> <br />People fonn the foundation for this Water Use Efficiency Plan. The District's plan <br />to increase vvater use efficiency is a product of corrm.mity involvement and district <br />corrmitment. The voices of the citizens, neighborhood organizations, and vvater- <br />conscious civic leaders are important in our search for solutions to vvater conservation. <br /> <br />WHERE lIVE WANT TO BE <br /> <br />Green Mountain would like to provide all the vvater needs for the uses desired by <br />the colTlnmity in a manner as efficient as current knowledge and technology (t8flllered <br />by reasonable cost considerations) will allow. <br /> <br />Based upon current growth projections of the service area, Green Mountain, in <br />cooperation with its customers, would irrplement a plan to save vvater annually through <br />-- - - - - -- - --- ----- --~- ------ - ----- ----- - --------- --------- - -- - --- - -- ---- - -- <br />vvater conservation programs and education. Water conserved will help ensure availability <br />in the future. <br /> <br />Conservation means different things to different people depending on their <br />respective uses and needs for vvater. By the end of 1997, the district will establish a <br />desired bench mark for reduction in use for both single family and multi-family dv.ellings <br />and identify opportunities and potential savings for conrnercial, institutional, and industrial <br />users. Once the bench mark is established, the district will be able to measure and <br />analyze realistic savings and will be able to make more reliable projections. <br /> <br />5 <br />
