Fort Worth, Texas (PRWEB) May 16, 2014
BRIT, the Fort Worth Water Department, and NBC 5 are partnering to sponsor the second annual EcoScape residential summer landscape contest to find the homeowner with the most creative, attractive, and water efficient lawn in the area. The contest runs from June 14 to August 16 and will be judged on three key criteria:
1.Design aesthetic appeal; composition; use of color and plant variety;
2.Water Conservation efficient irrigation/water use; use of non-vegetative materials such as fences, walls, walks, etc.; use of native and/or adapted plants; reduced turf area; and use of mulches; and
3.Appropriate Maintenance healthy landscape, no weeds; plants pruned as appropriate.
This is an effort to raise awareness of wasteful water usage and to challenge area homeowners to create water efficient landscape to reduce water consumption. It is estimated that half of the total household water use during the summer months goes to landscapes.
Residents with 1,000-square-foot (or larger) front yards are eligible and are invited to submit their water efficient yards that use native/adaptive plants and mix according to color, aesthetic appeal, and plant variety.
Fort Worth residents put more than 4.3 billion gallons of water into landscapes last year during the summer months. Despite how that sounds, weve made headway in Cowtown and for that reason alone, we wish to invite everyone to be part of this contest, assures Micah Reed, Fort Worths water conservation manager.
The EcoScape Contest is open to residential landscapes within Fort Worth city limits and Fort Worths wholesale customer cities, including Aledo, Bethesda Water Supply Corp., Burleson, Crowley, Dalworthington Gardens, Edgecliff Village, Everman, Forest Hill, Grand Prairie, Haltom City, Haslet, Hurst, Keller, Kennedale, Lake Worth, Northlake, North Richland Hills, Richland Hills, Roanoke, Saginaw, Southlake, Trophy Club Municipal Utility District, Westlake, Westover Hills, Westworth Village and White Settlement.
Applications are available online at the City of Fort Worth Water web site (http://fortworthtexas.gov/EcoScape/).

Residents of Foster City and those in the Mariners Island area of San Mateo are asked to refrain from watering their landscape while the Estero Municipal Improvement District temporarily shuts down its water transmission main Monday, June 2 through Monday, June 9.
The shutdown is required to facilitate the relocation of the existing water main that supplies the residents in the area. During the shutdown, the district will utilize backup water supply sources, which include its water storage tanks, a smaller water main and emergency water main connections with Belmont and San Mateo. The change in water supply may stir up sediment in the pipes and although the water is safe to drink, it may appear cloudy or discolored during the shutdown. Generally, running the tap for a few moments should clear up the cloudiness.
If the problem persists call the districts yard office at (650) 286-8140. For more information contact Associate Civil Engineer Laura Galli at (650) 286-3280.
