IMPORTANT: WATER LAWN ONLY 2 DAYS PER WEEK!!! Please
be sure to check your sprinkler systems for leaks and make sure that you aren't watering in the mornings. During this
hot weather if you water after the sun is up, 80% of the water simply evaporates, which doesn't help your lawn at all!
Summary of Lawn and Landscape Irrigation Rule and Exceptions Effective March 1, 2006
Highlights of the lawn and landscape irrigation rule
- Irrigation is prohibited between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.
- Irrigation is limited to no more than two days per week, per zone.
- Irrigation limitations apply to water withdrawn from private wells, surface water
and water from public supply utilities.
- Water users choose their own irrigation days unless their local government adopts
an ordinance and specifies their irrigation days.
- If a local government adopts an ordinance with specific irrigation days, those
irrigation days will be as follows:
- Odd numbered addresses -- Wednesdays and Saturdays
- Even numbered addresses or no address -- Thursdays and Sundays
- Irrigation limitations apply to all lawn and landscape irrigation not currently
regulated by a consumptive use permit. Typically, this includes residential, commercial and industrial establishments.
- Two-day-a-week irrigation limitations do not apply to golf course fairways, greens,
tees and roughs, agricultural crops, nursery plants, or high-use recreational areas such as ball fields. Consumptive use permits
typically regulate these types of irrigation.
- Persons irrigating with an automatic lawn irrigation system installed after May
1991 shall install, maintain and operate a rain sensor device or switch that overrides the system when adequate rainfall has
occurred.
