<br /> <br />Dear Resident: <br /> <br />City of Grand Junction, Colorado <br />81501-2668 <br />250 North Fifth Street <br /> <br />This month the City of Grand Junction and the Colorado Department of Natural <br />Resources will be starting a demonstration water conservation project. Approximately 100 <br />City of Grand Junction homeowners will be selected for participation. This residential <br />retrofit project will evaluate the effects of water and energy use after water conservation <br />plumbing devices are installed in individual homes. <br /> <br />Recognizing that the cost of water service is rising, we would like to determine what <br />water conservation measures the city might undertake in the future. We feel it is important <br />to keep utility costs down while not creating any lifestyle changes for citizens. The State of <br />Colorado, is interested in how this pilot project could affect other cities in the state. <br /> <br />To determine who might be interested in participating in this project, you are one <br />of a 1,000 city water customers who are being asked if you would like to participate in this <br />project. After we determine who is interested, 100 households will be finally selected. <br /> <br />Project participants will be provided with sophisticated, high quality water <br />conservation devices FREE of charge. These devices are low flow showerheads and devices <br />for toilets that allow for different flushing rates. After the devices are installed, household <br />water and energy use will be evaluated for a period of 18 months. This demonstration <br />project will not only provide the Water Department with information, but participants will <br />have an opportunity to evaluate their water use and monthly utility bills as well. <br /> <br />Between 60% and 70% of indoor water consumption is from toilet, bathing and <br />shower use. The toilet alone typically uses up to 40% or about 30 gallons of water per <br />person each day. As a participant in Grand Junction's demonstration project, installation <br />of the water conservation devices could reduce household water use by as much as 14%. <br /> <br />Please indicate your interest in this project by answering the questions on the <br />following page and returning the questionnaire to the Utilities Department no later than <br />March 20. 1991. Our address is 250 N. 5th Street, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501. For <br />further information and questions answered, you can call 244-1578. <br /> <br /> <br />xc: City Manager <br />City Council <br />
