voluntary conservation practices that included alternate wetting and drying and early drainage of their fields as well as crop residue management.
The bipartisan - sponsored law promises to align the interests of building owners and tenants with regard to investments in cost - effective energy efficiency and water
conservation measures, create studies that will examine successful sustainable
practices, enact data - tracking systems and provide ways to promote
voluntary tenant compliance.
