Website allowing people to report Utah neighbors or businesses wasting water during the drought has returned
SALT LAKE CITY — With most of Utah currently under extreme or exceptional drought conditions, every drop of water counts across the state. So once again, officials have opened a portal to report water wasters who are abusing the valuable resource.
It is one of our most precious resources, and right now it is scarce in many places with residents being asked to conserve. Once again, the "Hall of Fame or Shame" website that debuted in 2017 has gone live, although this year the name has been changed to just"Report Water Waste.""It raises awareness, mostly, that if we can educate people on the proper ways to irrigate and when to irrigate, and when not to, it also helps inform the water supplier as far as what is going on," said Candace Hasenyager, Director of the Utah Division of Water Resources.
