WaterSense, a program sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that is both a label for water-efficient products and a resource for helping save water, annually recognizes partners who have gone above and beyond in supporting WaterSense.
The 2019 WaterSense Sustained Excellence Award winners, Partners of the Year, and Excellence Award winners were announced Oct. 3 at the WaterSmart Innovations Conference and Exposition in Las Vegas.
WaterSense and its more than 2,000 utility, manufacturer, retail, builder and other organizational partners provide consumers and businesses with water-efficient products, homes, and programs to help them defeat water waste.
