NYSE: CWT—For the second year in a row, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) has honored California Water Service (Cal
Water) with its WaterSense® Excellence in Promoting WaterSense
Labeled Products Award. EPA presented the 2024 national award to
Cal Water for the utility’s commitment to, and partnership in,
helping customers become more water-efficient.
This award recognizes a partner that goes above and beyond to
help consumers understand the value of water-use efficiency and
aligns with EPA’s focus to aid in those efforts. Last year, through
Cal Water’s free Smart Landscape Tune-Up Program—which provides
evaluations and repair/retrofit services by an irrigation
professional certified through a WaterSense-approved program—along
with the utility’s extensive conservation rebate program, more than
1,660 WaterSense-labeled, weather-based irrigation controllers and
8,000 WaterSense-labeled spray sprinkler bodies were installed
throughout Cal Water’s service areas. Additionally, beyond the
free, high-efficiency conservation kits already offered to
residential customers, Cal Water distributed kits to sixth-grade
students to take home and provide WaterSense-labeled showerheads
and faucet aerators to their families to use.
In total, WaterSense-labeled devices installed in customers’
homes and businesses in 2023 through Cal Water’s conservation
rebate programs, Smart Landscape Tune-Up Program, and conservation
kits will save an estimated 395.1 million gallons of water over the
lifetime of the devices.
“I believe our partnership with WaterSense strengthens our
efforts to help customers make conservation a way of life,
particularly important as our changing climate brings increasingly
frequent and longer cycles of hotter, drier years,” said Marty
Kropelnicki, Cal Water Chairman and CEO. “We appreciate the
recognition EPA has given us and remain committed to being a
responsible steward of our limited water resources through our
comprehensive approach to efficiency, conservation, and
sustainability.”
