What you can do to conserve

Drought and climate change have caused Lake Mead to drop more than 150 feet over the last two decades. The federal government has issued a tier one water shortage declaration for 2024, reducing the amount of water Southern Nevada is allowed to draw from the lake. Through efficient water use and community-wide water conservation, all Southern Nevadans help protect and extend our community's water supply.
