The Upper San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District has also made strides towards incorporating water conservation into their overall goals for effective water management in the San Gabriel Valley.

The District's commitment to water conservation is upheld through the continuation of projects that save water and increase the public's awareness of conservation and other water-related issues. These projects also help the District meet the goals of the Best Management Practices (BMPs) set forth in the Memorandum of Understanding(MOU). The MOU was developed by the California Urban Water Conservation Council (CUWCC) of which the District has been a signatory member since February 19, 1992.

The District has administered projects that not only conserve water, but have also provided other benefits to the surrounding communities such as educational resources for local schools, informational resources for the public regarding water issues, and at times, even job training for troubled youth.

The goals of the District's Water Conservation Program are to expedite implementation of reasonable water conservation measures, develop comprehensive conservation programs based on the BMPs using sound economic criteria and to consider water conservation on an equal basis with other water management options.
