According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, garden and lawn watering accounts for 40 percent of residential water use during the summer. The typical gardener can save 1,300 gallons of water during the growing season thanks to a rain barrel's water catch.

The COSWA is a central Oklahoma-based 501(c)3 nonprofit organization composed of municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s), public agencies and private businesses that collaborate and pool resources to satisfy Oklahoma Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (OPDES) permit obligations on a regional level.
