Hand watering and micro-irrigation of plants (other than

New Lawns and Plants

New lawns and plants have a 30-30 establishment period,

-
Reclaimed water remains subject to voluntary watering hours,
unless blended with another water source or restricted by
the local government or utility.
Fountains, Car Washing and Pressure Washing
-
There are no restrictions on fountains, car washing and
pressure washing. However, the District asks that residents
be as efficient as possible, such as using a shutoff nozzle
on their hose so water isn’t wasted.
