Did You Know?

You can save money by shifting your electric use to the lower-priced, off-peak hours or by reducing your overall use.

Watering only when grass turns a dull, grey-green color and footprints remain helps save water and money. 

When it rains and as snow melts, runoff carries pollutants such as oil, antifreeze and gas down storm drains, contaminating our rivers, streams and lakes. Don't drip and drive.
