Elizabeth Nelson conducted the interview <br />with Angela and told of the great success that residents have had with the installation of <br />these systems. The new rebate was mentioned and this will hopefully get the message <br />out about the money saving and water saving advantages of SMART irrigation. <br />2010 Energy Expo <br />This years Energy Expo just took place.
