WATER—USE IT WISELY OVERVIEWThe Water – Use It Wisely program is a comprehensive community awareness campaign
that stars ordinary household objects as unexpected but highly effective water-saving
devices. The program demonstrates how changing a few simple habits can have a
significant impact on water consumption.
Our campaign headline, “There are a number of ways to save water, and they all start
with you,” communicates the theme that water conservation is the responsibility
of every individual.
The Water – Use It Wisely conservation campaign doesn’t tell people to save water,
it shows them how to save water. It’s a bright, colorful, fun approach that encourages
everyone to be mindful of when and how they use water.

WHY YOU NEED STANDARDSThe brand identity of the Water – Use It Wisely campaign is strengthened—and awareness
is increased—by consistent use of its elements. Even slight deviations can diminish
its impact.
Refer to these standards when using the logo, any of the many executions of the
campaign (brochures, posters, slides, ads, TV spots, etc), or the individual elements
that make up the campaign (headline, photographs, copy elements, tagline, etc). Be
sure to share these standards with your communications partners whenever they are
working with the campaign.
Whenever possible, Water – Use It Wisely logos, materials and campaign elements
should be reproduced from original digital files or camera-ready art prepared for
that purpose by Park&Co.

WATER—USE IT WISELY LOGOThe most recognizable and consistent element of the Water – Use It Wisely campaign
is the logo. The logo consists of the water drop symbol against a colored pattern and
the words “Water – Use It Wisely.” The visual strength of the logo as a symbol of the
campaign depends on its being used consistently. Please review these standards to
ensure that you always use the logo properly.
The logo can be used in a horizontal or vertical format. The size and placement of
the logo in your materials will suggest which is appropriate in each case.
There are numerous variations of the Water – Use It Wisely logo to give you a great
deal of flexibility in your printed or broadcast materials. The approved logo variations
are shown and described in these standards.
When placing the logo in your materials, always use the electronic artwork supplied
to you by Park&Co. Never alter the logo in any way, other than as described in
these standards.

LOGO COLORSTHE WATER – USE IT WISELY LOGO IS COLORFUL AND EYE-CATCHING, JUST AS THE CAMPAIGN
MATERIALS ARE. BECAUSE THE BRIGHT COLORS REINFORCE THE FUN, FRIENDLY TONE OF THE
CAMPAIGN, THE FULL-COLOR LOGO IS THE PREFERRED LOGO.
THE COLOR SPECIFICATIONS YOU WILL USE TO REPRODUCE THE LOGO DEPEND UPON THE MEDIUM IN
WHICH THE LOGO WILL BE USED.
• IN PRINTED MATERIALS, THE PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM (PMS) COLORS WILL GIVE
THE MOST ACCURATE REPRODUCTION.
• IN PRINTED MATERIALS THAT USE FOUR-COLOR PROCESS (SUCH AS NEWSPAPER OR
MAGAZINE ADS), USE THE CMYK COLOR SPECIFICATIONS.
• FOR ELECTRONIC MEDIA SUCH AS WEB SITES, CDS, OR VIDEO, USE THE RGB OR HEXA
DECIMAL COLOR SPECIFICATIONS.

CLEAR SPACEThe Water – Use It Wisely logo makes the strongest impact when it is not crowded by
other visual elements. Maintain a clear space around the logo relative to the size of
the logo, as illustrated here.

LOGO WITH WEB ADDRESS OR OTHER SECONDARY TYPEThe only acceptable variation in clear space is when the Water – Use It Wisely logo is
used with the wateruseitwisely.com web address or other secondary type approved by
Park&Co. In this case, the secondary type can be closer to the logo, but should still
maintain a clear space, as illustrated here.

EXAMPLES OF UNACCEPTABLE USEThe consistent use of the Water – Use It Wisely logo is necessary to protect the

LOGO USE OVER PHOTOSBecause of the colorful character of the Water – Use It Wisely logo, you must carefully
consider the decision to place the logo over a photograph. For best results, observe
the following guidelines:
• Choose an area of the photograph that has a consistent value (light and
dark areas).
• Match the logo to the value of the photograph, placing the black type logo
over light areas or the reverse (white type) logo over dark areas.
• Choose an area of the photograph with no distracting elements or patterns.
• When placing the logo over a photograph, the photograph should not be seen
inside the water drop. The inside of the water drop should always be white.

ELEMENTS OF THE CAMPAIGNThe Water – Use It Wisely campaign includes a set of visual and written elements
which have been created to communicate in a clear, concise compelling way. To
protect and build the brand, use the completed materials from Park&Co whenever
possible.
These elements are available for you to use in your newsletters, flyers, educational
materials and other department publications—with certain restrictions. For detailed
guidelines on the use of the individual elements, refer to the following sections:
HEADLINEThe headline for the campaign always reads:
There are a number of ways to save water, and they all start with you
• Do not change the headline in any way.
• Do not add, subtract or change words.
• Do not add a period to the end of the headline. Headlines often drop end punctuation
to encourage continued reading.
• Do not change capitalization.
• Do not change punctuation, with one exception: When the headline will be divided
across two pages, as in the cover and gatefold of a brochure or in a series of progressive
ads, you may punctuate the headline as follows:
There are a number of ways to save water...
...and they all start with you
TAGLINEThe tagline for the campaign always reads:
Water – Use It Wisely
• Do not change the tagline in any way.
• Do not add, subtract or change words.

used in any medium, in any municipality or region which has paid the campaign license
fee, provided the following guidelines are met:
