Culver City businesses save 11 million gallons of water

Ten Culver City organizations will be honored for implementing water efficient practices within their regular operating procedures.

Culver City Unified School District, El Astro Motel, El Marino Language School, Fox Hills Pines Homeowners’ Association, Haas Entertainment, MDR Associates, Sony Pictures, Travelodge, West Los Angeles Community College and Culver City’s Veterans Park are included in the list of exemplary organizations.

            “Culver City strives to be an environmentally conscious community.  The city is pleased to be a partner with West Basin Municipal Water District to recognize the efforts of local businesses, the Culver City Unified School District and West Los Angeles College,” said Culver City Mayor Jeffrey Cooper.

“I hope that the outstanding water conservation efforts of the honorees will serve as an inspiration to more businesses, both in Culver City and the region.”

            Culver City’s City Council, Golden State Water and the West Basin’s Director Edward C. Little will recognize these organizations with a plaque and certificate and acknowledge the sustainable business practices that they are modeling for the local community.

 “These organizations have installed hundreds of high-efficiency devices including sprinkler nozzles, toilets, urinals and cooling tower controllers, saving our area an estimated 11 million gallons every year, enough water for 68 households,” said Little.

            West Basin’s conservation programs allow coastal Los Angeles businesses and organizations to conserve water, save money and contribute to the service area’s future water portfolio.
