The Fort Worth Star Telegram (6/6, Smith) reported the University of Texas at Arlington "is installing 1,500 low-flow showerheads in residence halls and other student housing" that "were provided by the city and are part of ongoing efforts to promote water conservation and sustainable practices." Dustan Compton, the conservation program coordinator for Arlington, said the new showerheads "use 1.5 gallons of water per minute, compared with 2.5 gallons per minute for standard showerheads." UTA officials said the showerhead initiative dovetailed with the school's broader goal of improving sustainability on campus.
