Water ban looms as conservation proves voluntary
City officials say water conservation remains voluntary as the reservoir holds at 35 feet, aided by recent rainfall and ongoing repairs at Fishing Creek Dam. Phase one penalties include up to a $500 fine and possible jail time for garden watering and nonrecycling fountains. Phase two would add more restrictions, including closing car washes and commercial pools.

Ralph Nader announced a nationwide campaign against daminozide, the Alar growth regulator linked to deeper red apples and longer storage. EPA has not banned it pending more animal tests, while New York, Maine, and Public Citizen urge restricting daminozide residues in apples and related foods. Nader said consumer groups will press supermarkets, juice processors, and manufacturers to stop using Alar treated produce.
