Status of Implementation

The Sacramento County Water Agency (SCWA) invests in the Regional Water Authority Be Water Smart program. The website for the program can be found here: BeWaterSmart.

Be Water Smart is a public outreach-and school education-focused program sponsored by the Regional Water Authority’s Water Efficiency Program (WEP) and 19 water providers. These water providers in Sacramento, Placer, and El Dorado Counties plus the City of West Sacramento are working together to help their customers use water efficiently. The website was developed as part of the Be Water Smart program to provide information to customers on how to save water.

The WEP was established with the idea that water providers could maximize resources and customer services through collaboration.
