Customers in Peoria should be, because wasting water is prohibited in the city. The city's local laws say things like leaving taps on when not in use, failing to repair water leaks, and allowing water to run off one's property onto streets or sidewalks are not allowed.

Water waste was written into the city's local laws in 1992, but it has since been expanded.

That would amount to about 760,000 acre-feet of water, according to the federal plan meant to protect the drought-stricken Lake Mead and Lake Powell.
