Strategies for reducing outdoor water use include all of the following methods except:
  1. use water sense irrigation technology
  2. use nonpotable water for irrigation
  3. install submeters
  4. choose drought-tolerant plants
Explanation
Answer: A - Using water sense irrigation technology is NOT one of the strategies for reducing outdoor water use. Landscape irrigation is a significant component of many commercial buildings' water use and thus an opportunity to save water. Using nonpotable water such as rainwater or greywater prevents potable water from being used. Submetering irrigation allows you to monitor and optimize water usage. Drought-tolerant plants and native plants lower the amount of irrigation necessary.
