Orange County – July is traditionally the month of a peak demand for water for lawns, gardens, and landscapes in North America. The Irrigation Association named July as Smart Irrigation Month to increase public awareness of the value of water‐use efficiency. In conjunction with this effort, Orange County Utilities is offering a free "Micro‐Irrigation Workshop."

In this interactive class, irrigation professionals will teach homeowners the step‐by‐step process of converting portions of their irrigation system into micro‐irrigation for more efficient watering.
