Water Conservation
Prototype Water Conservation Plan
The Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) through the Commission on Water Resource Management
(CWRM) has embarked on a mission to develop a prototype water conservation plan for DLNR with potential
application to other State agencies. One of the key objectives of the DLNR Water Conservation Plan is to
ultimately establish policies and procedures for a statewide conservation program. Our long-term goals include
addressing both potable and non-potable water demands, identifying practical water conservation measures, and
developing implementation schedules and budgets for application of appropriate water conservation measures
throughout State government, and eventually the State of Hawaii.

TopWater Conservation Manual for State of Hawaii Facilities
On January 20, 2006, Governor Linda Lingle issued Administrative Directive No. 06-01 requiring all State
agencies and programs to increase their commitment towards implementing innovative and resource efficient
operations and management. This manual is intended to help State agencies comply with Administrative Directive
No. 06-01 by providing detailed information on how to implement a number of water efficient practices at State
buildings and facilities that will result in waste reduction and increased levels of conservation. The conversion
to State buildings and facilities to water-efficient status will assist State agencies in their efforts to meet and
receive certification by the United States Green Building Council's (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED) standards.
