Patrick lived in Emoryville, but every Saturday morning he rode two city buses to his uncle's bookstore in Northview where he worked. He didn't mind the
commute because he loved his job. He loved spending time with his uncle, but he also loved going to work because he had become friends with Andrew,
one of his co-workers. The boys would talk about everything from baseball scores to movies to favorite pizza toppings
So this Saturday, when Patrick got to work, he and Andrew got to talking as they always did.
"Hey, Pat" Andrew said casually
"Hey," said Patrick. "Did you have a good week?"
"Yeah," he said "Great week. My basketball team made it into the semifinals. The game is tonight. We're playing Emoryville, our nemesis
Before Patrick could say another word, Andrew continued. "I don't like Emoryville: I don't think I could ever be friends with someone from that town Our
schools are such rivals
Patrick was speechless
'Where are you from, Pat? I can't believe I've never asked you that before!"

Read the excerpt from "A Performance to Remember."

Bonaly earned a silver medal, losing to Japan’s Yuka Sato. A visibly upset Bonaly claimed that her routine was far more difficult than Sato’s. She not only refused to stand on the second place winner’s spot at the podium but also removed her silver medal from around her neck. Some say that she behaved poorly. To that, Bonaly responded, “When you do sport, the rule is that you're supposed to play fair, to be a good athlete and good sport, I get it,"…"But I think at this point it was more an act of saying, 'OK, this is too much.' It happened many years in a row."

Water Efficiency Strategies
courtesy of United States Environmental Protection Agency

Drinking water systems can implement water efficiency measures and still deliver an unchanged or improved level of service to consumers while reducing overhead costs. Improving water efficiency reduces operating costs (e.g., pumping and treatment) and reduces the need to develop new supplies and expand our water infrastructure. It also reduces withdrawals from limited freshwater supplies, leaving more water for future use and improving the ambient water quality and aquatic habitat.

More and more utilities are using water efficiency and consumer conservation programs to increase the sustainability of their supplies. Case studies demonstrate substantial opportunities to improve efficiency through supply-side practices, such as accurate meter reading and leak detection and repair programs, as well as through demand-side strategies, such as conservation-based water rates and public education programs.

Supply-Side Strategies for Water Suppliers

Accounting for Water—Accounting for water is an essential step toward ensuring that a water utility is sustainable. This is best accomplished when water systems meter use by their customers. Metering helps to identify losses due to leakage and also provides the foundation on which to build an equitable rate structure to ensure adequate revenue to operate the system.

Water Loss Control—National studies indicate that, on average, 14 percent of the water treated by water systems is lost to leaks. Some water systems have reported water losses exceeding 60 percent. Accounting for water and minimizing water loss are critical functions for any water utility that wants to be sustainable.

Demand-Side Strategies for Water Suppliers

Water Rates—One of the most effective ways to reduce demand for water is to establish rates that escalate as more water is used.

Consumer Efficiency—Consumers can reduce water use by installing water-efficient products or employing efficiency practices, such as turning the water off while brushing teeth or running washing machines only when they are full. Water systems can promote these actions through consumer rebate and education programs.

EPA's WaterSense Program—WaterSense seeks to protect the future of our nation's water supply by promoting water efficiency and enhancing the market for water-efficient products, programs, and practices. Visit the website for information on water-efficient products and practices, as well as utilities who offer rebates for WaterSense labeled products. Water systems can also apply to become a WaterSense program partner and receive tools they can use to promote their own water efficiency programs.
