On Super Bowl Sunday 🏈we thought it would be a good time to remind folks that in the water world "AF" stands for acre-foot and it's how we measure water volume and use. One-acre foot of water covers one acre (about the size of a football field), one foot deep. Enjoy the game!

In preparation for Martin Luther King, Jr., Day, we honor Dr. King’s legacy in the Civil Rights Movement. He championed equality through peaceful resistance, with the 1963 March on Washington as a powerful example. His influence symbolizes love and justice today. #MLKDay
