  • External Source Beef O' Brady's restaurants are spreading the word on water conservation. Nearly 50 franchise owners gave a big boost to the Southwest Florida Water Management District's free Water Program for Restaurant Outreach, or Water PRO for short.

    Water PRO has signed 72 restaurants since the program began in May, according to Grantham.

    The first step involves restaurant staff performing a "self-audit" how to restrict water use in kitchens, she explained.

    Then staff members are trained. They learn to serve water only when customers request it because every glass of water uses an additional two glasses of water during cleaning.

    Then the restaurant owners can put educational materials on tables for guests to read.

    A "table tent" gives an overview. Colorful coasters are supplied. Children can try their hand at the coloring sheets.

    Restaurants can find other ways to save water and perhaps money, Grantham elaborated.

    For instance, replacing spray valves with low-flow models can save up to $1,320 a year.
