2011-04-22 Large-scale rainwater harvesting

Description

Personal rainwater harvesting uses a home's roof gutters and downspouts to channel rainwater to a collection tank. The collected water is typically used for landscaping and significant conservation is achieved.


On a much larger scale, rainwater can be collected for direct use or added to our aquifer to help us achieve safe yield or to offset proposed groundwater pumping in the Big Chino Valley and thereby protect the flow of the Verde River. View document.
