Program Overview
Turning Turf Toward a Sustainable Future
The Turnkey Turf Transformation Program (T3 Program) is an innovative regional initiative designed to advance water-use efficiency and environmental sustainability. Spearheaded by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA) in collaboration with three partner agencies, Calleguas Municipal Water District (CMWD), Las Virgenes Municipal Water District (LVMWD), and the Upper San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District (USGVMWD), the program aims to transform non-functional turf with California-friendly, drought-tolerant landscaping across Southern California.
By converting highly visible and frequently visited public and commercial spaces, T3 program showcases the power of sustainable landscape design to conserve water, the beauty and function of a water-efficient landscape and sets an example for responsible water stewardship. The T3 program provides comprehensive design-to-installation services for selected commercial properties, government facilities, and other public spaces. The program simplifies turf replacement for these sites by offering a complete, managed process, from initial assessment to final installation.
