Show The Pioneer Post Volume XV Issue 5 Marriott-Slaterville City Newsletter May 2013 Weber Basin Water Conservancy The Weber Basin Water Conservancy District (Weber Baisn) recently met with local leaders from northern Utah. Water resources are limited in Utah which is the second driest state in America. Weber Basin asked the city to inform residents about water conservation. Being aware of water consumption will reduce overall consumption rate. Many people use more water then needed. Watch your household water use and observe where conservation can be made. When watering your lawn and garden on the city's pressurized system, adjust your watering schedule to evenings and night when possible. Adjust outdoor water schedules to match seasonal or weather conditions. Weber Basin is hosting a free Learning Garden Fair on June 1, 2013 from 8:00 am until 2:00 pm. The Fair is at Weber Basin Learning Garden, 2837 E. Highway 193 in Layton. You can talk to experts in landscaping and irrigation. There are free hotdogs and drinks. You can also buy plants and get garden ideas. Weber Basin is also hosting multiple classes and programs during the spring and summer.
