Minimize potable water use.<br />
Where irrigation water is desired or<br />
necessary, it can be drawn from harvested<br />
rainwater stored in ponds or basins rather<br />
than valuable potable water drawn from<br />
municipal sources. Irrigate with watereffi<br />
cient systems (drip irrigation, moisture<br />
sensors, and weather data based controllers,<br />
see subsurface irrigation image at top right)<br />
and from captured roof surfaces. Water from<br />
paved surfaces, such as parking lots, can also<br />
be used if properly treated.<br />
