"The State Government and the Local Government Association of South Australia have joined forces to reduce community water use through a new trial showerhead exchange program. The free exchange program - where householders can trade in old showerheads in return for low-flow models - will be trialled in at least five Councils under the new Waterwise Communities program being led by SA Water and the LGA. Minister for Water Security Karlene Maywald says the Waterwise Communities program also includes targeted water saving plans, water education programs, community events and shower-timer giveaways. “Our goal is to have all councils participating by the end of 2008 and to make it easy for people to trade old water wasting showerheads, to new low-flow versions,” Minister Maywald said."
