Reservoirs store water to prevent shortages. Take a look at this comparison of 2020 water levels vs 2019. What does Mother Nature have in store for us this winter? #SlowTheFlow #WaterWise

Secondary water begins to be turned on today, but that doesn’t mean you should use it yet. #Wait2Water until the temps are in the upper-70s for several consecutive days. Save now so there’s more to use when things really heat up. #SlowTheFlow #Drought tinyurl.com/zcxejbc2

The length of this drought Is out of our control. What’s in our control is how we respond. What we do as individuals, families, businesses, institutions & industries to conserve water matters. - Division of Water Resources deputy director Candice Hasenyager

“Extreme” or “exceptional” drought now covers 98% of Utah. The two most serious drought categories issued by the Drought Monitor. That’s 6% higher than last week.

Take a look at these pics of Great Salt Lake at its historic high, average and today. Extreme #Utahdrought has accelerated the decline. We are working with stakeholders to protect this natural resource while providing for the needs of our growing population. #SlowTheFlow

We want to advance more aggressive water conservation measures, so we're looking at: 💧 Installing secondary water meters; 💧 Better integrating land use planning & water planning; 💧 Optimizing agricultural water use; and 💧 Starting a turf buyback program. #LetsGo #OneUtah
