The Sweetwater Authority launched a new program that aims to help south bay businesses save water and money through reduction strategies.
The Water Efficiency Partner Program helps businesses reduce their water use. Participating businesses can access a free water use audit and personalized recommendations from the SWA.
Through the program, businesses gain access to a free water use audit and personalized recommendations. Local businesses are also offered exclusive incentives to help offset the costs of installing new water-efficient fixtures.
“The Authority’s Governing Board is committed to supporting economic development in our service area and saving water during this unprecedented drought,” said Board Chair Alejandra Sotelo-Solis. “By offering this unique partnership program, we’re able to provide businesses the ability to save on costs while becoming more water efficient.”
According to the SWA, businesses should first schedule a water use audit to receive personalized water use reduction recommendations to enroll in the program.
“Many of those recommended changes, including upgrading fixtures to more water efficient models, will come at a low cost to the businesses thanks to existing rebate programs,” wrote the SWA in a statement.
Participating businesses will be recognized as a Water Efficiency Partner by the Governing Board, be featured on the Authority’s website, and will receive a window decal to display at their business site.
