Help Mother Nature While Lowering Your Bill

June 09, 2003

Spring and summer are gorgeous times of year in Washington. Starting in early April, tulips and daffodils begin to emerge, blanketing fresh green landscapes with brilliant bursts of color. And deep blue skies are dotted with our beautiful cherry blossoms, dogwoods and magnolias. Plenty of spring showers, courtesy of Mother Nature, provide all the water our gardens need—until summer. Once temperatures rise, and rain becomes less frequent, Washington residents must supply what Mother Nature doesn’t to maintain our living masterpieces.

Helping Mother Nature, however, can be costly. So DCWASA is proud to offer its customers a new, money-saving program. Know more about this by clicking the link below.
