How does this year's watering recommendations stack up to previous years? Click the button below to find out. 

In the spirit of waste reduction, we are no longer providing watering gauges. Over the past few years, we estimate we have distributed over 80,000 gauges in the Eugene community. If you don't have a gauge, you can easily make one from a tuna can.

• Place a measuring strip inside a tuna can and place it in your landscape where it will receive an average amount of water from the sprinkler, and then turn on the sprinkler.
• Alternatively, you can use a measuring tape and a permanent marker to measure and mark your measuring device if you don't have a measuring strip. 
• Turn off the sprinkler when the amount in the tuna can matches the recommended amout of water for that week.
