Los Angeles water usage in Feburary is the lowest in 30 years

The Department of Water and Power in Los Angeles is proud of their report this month.  The city reached a 31-year low for the month of February.  Officials say this is because of the ongoing water rationing starting in 2007 due to drought in the city.  


Even with an 3 million person increase in these past 30 years, the citizens of L.A. managed to reduce there water usage by nearly 30% compared to February of 1997.  City water operations offical, Jim McDaniel, says "What we're hoping is that people are learning to live with these wiser water habits in a way that hopefully doesn't negatively impact their lifestyle."
