2008 Irrigation Schedule

The District was encouraged by the Castle Pines Homes Association's survey that 87% of the residents who responded agreed with the need to conserve water. You may not be aware that to irrigate your lawn you are using water that has been treated at the water treatment plant to drinking water standards. The District is experiencing summer water use that exceeds our original expectations. The District originally designed the 2.1 million gallon water treatment plant to handle a peak day demand of 1,500 gallons per household during the summer. However, in the 1998/99 summer months the District experienced peak day's demands of 2.3 million gallons. This equates out to per household use of 2,428 gallons per day. As you can see, this puts a strain on the current water treatment plant.

We are requesting the residents' cooperation with a voluntary summer watering schedule to begin on May 1, 2008 and run to October 1, 2008. The District is not asking that you stop watering your landscape, only that you help us spread out the peak day demand by following the irrigation schedule with your sprinkler system and follow a few water conserving tips:
