South Huntington Water District has joined the Long Island Commission for Aquifer Protection and dozens of dedicated organizations to urge Long Islanders to take steps to conserve water through the “Our Water Our Lives” outreach campaign, which was designed to help Long Islanders understand the value of our precious drinking water supply and the easy steps you can take every day to preserve it for current and future residents.

We ask that you go to the “Our Water Our Lives” website at this link to take the pledge and learn what you can do to save water to join this communal effort. Nearly 1,700 people have taken the pledge to date.

Now, we’re pleased to tell you that everyone who has already taken the pledge or who does so by September 30, 2019 will be entered into a raffle to win a free Blossom 7 Smart Watering Controller. This device furthers the conservation goals of the campaign by automatically programming itself based on real-time weather data to create an optimized watering schedule for your lawn.

So, if you haven’t already, please go to the website and take the pledge. You’ll not only help to preserve the underground aquifer that provides 100% of our drinking water, but you may even win a smart controller that will help you save money on your water bill.
