Beginning September 1, 2022, outdoor watering is limited to one day per week to further stretch critical water supplies during this unprecedented drought.
For customers who have even-numbered street addresses, watering is on Mondays only. For customers who have odd-numbered street addresses, watering is on Tuesdays only. Remember that all outdoor watering must take place before 9:00 am or after 6:00 pm.
Tips
Tips to help improve water conservation efforts:
- Monitor your home for leaks, and fix them right away.
- Adjust sprinklers to avoid overspray; water the plants, not the pavement!
- Consider removing sprinklers altogether, and retrofit to drip irrigation instead.
- Install a flow monitoring device to improve water use optimization.
- Convert water-thirsty turf to drought-tolerant and California native plants.
- Continue to hand water trees to keep them healthy.
