Phila. Water Dept.highlights conservation tips under drought watch

The call for voluntary cuts in water use follows PADEP’s November 1, 2024, declaration of a Drought Watch in 33 counties, including Philadelphia County.

The PADEP designation asks residents in all Drought Watch counties to reduce individual water use by three to six gallons daily. Running a kitchen faucet for three to seven minutes uses roughly three to six gallons. (See below for tips on reducing water use.)
