NOVATO, CA - FEBRUARY 05: Benjamin Franklin Plumbing technician Todd Snider tests the flow of water after installing an aerator at a home on February 5, 2014 in Novato, California. Californians are installing water saving devices in their homes like low flow toilets, shower heads and aerators as residents are being asked to voluntarily reduce water by twenty percent as California is experiencing its driest year on record. Some counties have imposed mandatory reductions in water use and have banned watering of lawns. California Gov. Jerry Brown officially declared a drought emergency earlier in the month to speed up assistance to local governments, streamline water transfers and potentially ease environmental protection requirements for dam releases.
