Dinuba Saves 38%

The City of Dinuba in the San Joaquin Valley is saving 38% on its electricity bill for City Hall by taking simple no-cost measures, according to Dan Meinert, Dinuba's community development director. The City turned off hallway lights, raised the thermostat to 78Á and shut off one bank of overhead fluorescent lights.

To find out other no-cost or low-cost ideas for saving energy, visit http://www.flexyourpower.ca.gov/ and connect with all the programs offered in California by the State, the utilities and others. You'll also connect there with rebate programs to help cover the cost of the higher-priced items.

And don't stop conserving when the weather gets cooler. Remember last winter's blackouts, and check the Local Government Commission's Energy Clearinghouse for winter energy saving tips at http://www.lgc.org/energyclearinghouse/.
