Fix a Leak Week March 15-21
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
estimates that 1 trillion gallons of water are wasted from residential leaks in the United States every year, equivalent
to the annual water usage of Los Angeles, Chicago, and Miami combined. That's why the Public Service Commission
of Wisconsin (PSC) is promoting "Fix a Leak Week," March 15-21, 2010. Fix a Leak Week serves as an annual
reminder for consumers to conserve water by fixing leaky plumbing fixtures and irrigation systems.
