The water shortage in California has reached crisis status. Gov. Jerry Brown recently took the unprecedented step of ordering mandatory water restrictions to achieve a 25 percent reduction in urban water usages throughout the state. With California’s hottest and driest months ahead, we all need to do our part to ensure that we have enough water to drink, fight fires, and irrigate the crops that bring in billions of dollars to the state. Unfortunately, while water demand rises, supply continues to shrink.
Therefore, municipal governments throughout the state are stepping up to help residents find new, innovative, and cost-effective ways to reduce water consumption in non-disruptive ways. Industry, agriculture, and population place significant strains on the water reserves.
The Santa Barbara County Water Agency coordinates many residential and commercial water-conservation efforts through its WaterWiseSB.org website. This site is one of many programs sponsored by the Santa Barbara County Water Providers network. These programs provide a strategy of helpful rebates for technological solutions that will help balance the needs of everyone.
The county also offers home gardeners free mulch, which retains water in the soil, and reduces weed growth. Self-pickup and onsite delivery are offered, with a fee for larger loads.
The WaterWise rebates vary by city and conservation type. The city of Santa Barbara’s are typical, including rebates for landscaping and irrigation, pool covers, and high-efficiency washing machines. Free rain sensors for existing irrigation controllers are offered when you get a free water checkup, and vouchers for up to 25 free water-efficient sprinkler nozzles also are part of the program.
City of Lompoc water customers qualify for a $50 rebate for each rain barrel they purchase, and another rebate for replacing turf with low-water-usage plants, rocks, mulch, or synthetic turf.

Keeping California blue is a job that no one can do alone. It will take a concerted effort on all of our parts to ensure that our state has the water we need to remain golden. Take advantage of these tips, incentives, and rebates, and our water savings will certainly add up to more than a drop in the bucket.

Aparatos de equilibrado: clave para el funcionamiento estable y eficiente de las maquinarias.
En el mundo de la ciencia contemporanea, donde la efectividad y la confiabilidad del equipo son de suma trascendencia, los aparatos de ajuste tienen un tarea fundamental. Estos equipos adaptados estan disenados para equilibrar y regular piezas rotativas, ya sea en maquinaria de fabrica, transportes de traslado o incluso en aparatos domesticos.
Para los expertos en reparacion de aparatos y los ingenieros, manejar con aparatos de calibracion es fundamental para garantizar el rendimiento suave y seguro de cualquier mecanismo dinamico. Gracias a estas alternativas tecnologicas sofisticadas, es posible disminuir significativamente las vibraciones, el estruendo y la carga sobre los rodamientos, prolongando la duracion de componentes costosos.
De igual manera importante es el funcion que desempenan los equipos de equilibrado en la asistencia al cliente. El asistencia profesional y el mantenimiento constante empleando estos equipos habilitan brindar asistencias de gran excelencia, elevando la bienestar de los usuarios.
Para los titulares de emprendimientos, la inversion en equipos de equilibrado y detectores puede ser esencial para aumentar la eficiencia y desempeno de sus sistemas. Esto es sobre todo trascendental para los emprendedores que manejan pequenas y modestas organizaciones, donde cada elemento es relevante.
Tambien, los sistemas de equilibrado tienen una gran implementacion en el campo de la fiabilidad y el monitoreo de estandar. Facilitan identificar eventuales errores, impidiendo arreglos elevadas y danos a los dispositivos. Incluso, los resultados recopilados de estos sistemas pueden usarse para maximizar metodos y incrementar la presencia en sistemas de exploracion.
Las sectores de utilizacion de los sistemas de balanceo cubren numerosas sectores, desde la manufactura de bicicletas hasta el monitoreo ecologico. No interesa si se trata de grandes manufacturas productivas o modestos locales de uso personal, los equipos de ajuste son esenciales para asegurar un desempeno productivo y sin riesgo de interrupciones.
