Mark your calendars for the RIO RALLY which starts on June 20!! This city-wide game is designed by the Water Authority to celebrate our favorite (and only!) river: the Rio Grande! Gamers will collect points and stickers as they embark on various quests around Albuquerque such as at public libraries, the ABQ BioPark, ¡Explora!, and many more. The game runs through July 12, and winners will receive free passes to different locations around the city, a family pass to the Natural History Museum, and other great prizes. Spread the word and let’s get ready to rally! Scan the QR code for more information and to get registered.

If you see something, say something! Water waste “officially” occurs when sprinkler irrigation is used between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m., or when water is allowed to flow or overspray onto streets and sidewalks or adjacent properties. Report it at https://survey123.arcgis.com/share/e6d65adbc19b48769213afbaf7cc1b28, and we’ll do our best to help the violator correct the problem (before we levy any fines)!

“Smart” irrigation controllers are adjustable by plant type, respond automatically to changing weather conditions, and deliver just the right amount of water at just the right time. This translates to reduced water waste, healthier landscapes, and for many users, lower water bills. EPA Water Sense-certified smart controllers qualify for a 25% rebate (up to $100 for residential customers and $500 for commercial customers).
