Panhandle Groundwater Conservation District - Conserving Water For Future Generations

[Panhandle GCD @PanhandleGCD]

PGCD was one stop of many as part of the Comptroller's Good for Texas Tour. We are very thankful that both the Comptroller and Director George Peyton from the Texas Water Development Board both see the importance of supporting all water conservation efforts!

As shown on the latest map for conditions as of 12/14, drought continues to expand & intensify. Recent weeks have been extremely dry. If those conditions continue to prevail, an additional 28% of the state is susceptible to drought conditions. https://t.co/GlvDPtEk4k #txwater

We had some fun visitors today at the District! Wilson Elementary students came and learned about xeriscaping, rain water harvesting, and of course, water conservation! It's so important to give our youth the tools they need in order to be good water stewards- #PGCD #conservation

Things are still pretty dry in the District, so being smart about our water use is as important as ever. As we're now in Fall, please consider stopping watering on lawns and outdoor gardens to conserve water and start preparing for cooler temperatures.

Hire a qualified pro to install your irrigation system and keep it working properly and efficiently.

One of the world’s largest spring-fed pools is in West Texas. The San Solomon Springs bubble up from the Davis Mountains and deliver 20-28M gallons of water a day to @BalmorheaSP, a swimming hole built in the 1930s. 📸: @TPWDnews

[Project WET: Water Education Today @projectwet]

Our California water education partners know how to have fun while learning! At the #SolanoWaterInstitute, educators spend multiple days exploring local watersheds while gaining real-world tools and techniques from Project WET to teach about water resources.

Reward kids for the water-saving tips they follow.

The water cycle describes how Earth's water is not only always changing forms, between liquid, solid, & gas, but also moving on, above, & in the Earth. This process is always happening everywhere. Check out the resources available for teachers w/ @USGS. https://t.co/0GZnRcJ4jh

Have you checked your toilet(s) for leaks this year? If you have a leak, water is being wasted, and your water bill can raise significantly! 🚽 #WaterWiseWednesday #PGCD #savewater #savemoney

[North Plains GCD @NorthPlainsGCD]

Make sure all water from your sprinklers stays on your grass to keep from wasting it!

[Panhandle GCD @PanhandleGCD]

Did you know you can save water by making sponge water bombs, rather than filling up tons of water balloons?!? Check out the article below to make your own water bombs. #PGCD #waterconservation

Watering when the weather is cooler helps save water by preventing it from evaporating from your lawn!

[High Plains UWCD @HPUWCD]

#SmartIrrigationMonth isn’t just for homeowners—Ag producers can celebrate too! Here are some tips.

[North Plains GCD @NorthPlainsGCD]

Keep a pitcher of drinking water in the refrigerator instead of running the tap. This way, every drop goes down you and not the drain.
