Monday begins a week of national observance that is extremely important, notably to Americans living in the West. March 16-22, 2015, is National Fix-a-Leak Week. Each leaked-away drop of water is precious, especially to those of us living in a drought. (In our area, we have only one year of water left in storage, and our groundwater is quickly disappearing.) Even if you live in areas that saw too much wetness this winter it’s important: when you pay your water bills and taxes, and if our drought suddenly decides to move in your direction.

Then become part of Fix-a-Leak week starting Monday. Or, hey, it’s a weekend. Why not start today?
