Colorado WaterWise Best Practices Guidebook

The Colorado WaterWise Guidebook of Best Practices for Municipal Water Conservation in Colorado, 2nd Edition was prepared for the purpose of improving and enhancing water conservation and efficiency in Colorado. Although tailored for Colorado water providers, the Best Practices Guidebook for Municipal Water Conservation in Colorado (Best Practices Guidebook for short) offers a detailed description of specific water conservation measures, program elements, regulations, policies, and procedures that can be implemented by water providers across North America to help ensure reliable and sustainable water supplies for future generations.

A PDF of the full guidebook can be found here.

Colorado WaterWise (CWW) envisions that this Best Practices Guidebook will be used by water professionals including water providers, local governments, consultants, building managers, design engineers, irrigation professionals, and others to help select the most sensible and cost-effective water conservation measures and programs to implement. Water providers can use best practices to understand state laws and regulations and to guide in the selection of water conservation program measures to include in their conservation plans. Landscape and development professionals may use the Best Practices Guidebook to determine the most sensible water efficiency practices to implement in new construction and retrofit projects. Others may find the Best Practices Guidebook a useful tool to increase water efficiency in their local community. This project was funded with support from the Colorado Water Conservation (CWCB)and the Colorado River District.

The guidebook includes information for seven best practices. Use the navigation list to learn more about each!
