Ready for rain barrels




Las Virgenes Municipal Water District is offering its residential customers up to two free 55-gallon rain barrels and a rebate of $125 to have each barrel installed in anticipation of this year’s rainy season.

Customers who wish to participate in the program can register at www.LVMWD.com/Rain-Barrels and follow the instructions at the website.

Funded by a water conservation grant, the rain barrel program can help customers maintain gardens, shrubs and trees using nature’s free water.

The installation rebate is an added incentive to have the barrels properly installed. In most cases, modifications to the home’s rain gutter downspouts are necessary, and a secure, elevated support for the barrel needs to be in place. Customers must provide “before and after” photos showing the installed rain barrel. Funding is limited, and all barrels must be installed by Nov. 30.
