Lavon Lake, the main reservoir for North Texas, sits at less than half of its designed capacity
Other lake reservoirs continue to decrease water levels
North Texas' Lake Ralph Hall will not even be able to provide 1/10th of water needed by 2060 and will not be able to supply water until 2025 Residents’ water rates would increase by more than
half to pay for it State water planners envision 26 future reservoir
projects costing $14 billion combined
So why not a reservoir?
Our team of Blue Revolution experts will evaluate the landscaping of homeowners and recommend a best practice for water conservation
Many sources of vegetation only need minimal amounts of water to survive Zoysia palisades grass - only needs watering once a week
in the summertime Fort Bliss National Cemetery - cut water usage by 90
percent or 56 million gallons Homes with access to alternative sources of irrigation
water can reduce their water bills significantly
Landscaping

Water that comes from your bath, dishwasher, laundry, and any sink without a garbage-disposal can be used for landscape irrigation
Nutrients in greywater will fertilize landscaping naturally and maintain a healthy yard without the manual spreading of fertilizer
A system be designed to pump the treated water into the landscaping as groundwater and be irrigated from underneath the landscaping
Greywater treatment is done with aerobic pre-treatment or anaerobic pre-treatment
Having a greywater system would allow residents to irrigate yards more often and not have to follow the scheduled watering times that are set for their cities or counties.
Greywater
Blue Revolution would like to partner with Home Owners Associations throughout the DFW area and implement our water saving appliances in order to reduce water waste, and improve the current drought situation.
By partnering with HOAs in DFW, other communities will recognize that certain neighborhoods are doing their part to conserve.
HOAs
DFW is booming with restaurants, meaning much of the water consumption comes from that industry.
