Conservation

save water handAs stewards of our local water resources, we all have a responsibility to protect water and use it wisely. Many San Bernardino residents have done a great job learning to use water more efficiently, but to ensure sustainable water supplies for the future we must embrace conservation as a way of life and adopt new ways to save water every day. The San Bernardino Municipal Water Department (SBMWD) provides water conservation programs and resources to promote water use efficiency and encourages customers to take daily steps to save our local water supplies.
