Due to the extended dry spell and higher-than-normal water consumption, we ask all North Wales Water Authority (NWWA) customers to immediately implement water conservation measures in their homes and businesses whenever possible. Our website has extensive water conservation tips and resources, and this flyer from PA DEP is also a resource for conservation ideas.
