Water Conservation Plan

WATER CONSERVATION PLAN

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Castle Pines Village Residents:

 

 

The Water Conservation Plan was approved by the Board on October 15, 2009 and approved by the Colorado Water Conservation Board in February 2010.

 

The plan's purpose is to provide a workable framework to accomplish three goals: to lower The Castle Pine Village (CPV) peak day water demand by as much as 20%, to reduce irrigation consumption by up to 20%, and to provide a document assuring government and industry partners that CPV is committed to conserve the Denver Basin groundwater currently owned and those renewable surface waters which we may acquire in the future.

 

 

Please see Water Conservation Plan link at the bottom of the page.

 

Any comments or questions?  Please send them to Emily Coll, Water Conservation Coordinator, ecoll [at] castlepinesmetro [dot] com
