Conservation is a very important issue here in Southwest Florida.
In order to maintain the quality of life we have come to expect, we must all look for ways to conserve our water supplies. This is never more true than during those months of the year when we experience a large influx of seasonal visitors. It is this time of the year when conservation of our supplies is most important, for this is also our annual dry season. During this time of year South Florida Water Management can impose varying levels of water restrictions in order to the protect the areas supplies from contamination. In many cases, voluntary restrictions are imposed that, in effect, are a request to voluntarily limit potentially wasteful practices.
