During times of drought, the local water authority regulates the water usage. We are in stage 2 restrictions right now.

San Antonio Water System: Stage 2 Drought Restrictions


Ahh I see. I wish I could send you guys some rain. We have gotten about 2.5 feet of rain since June 1st. Things would have to get extremely bad for water restrictions to be imposed up here in Indiana.

So do you guys get fined for watering your lawns when it's not your day?

SAWS: Report Water Waste

Well, it goes from a "friendly reminder" of the rules up to a misdemeanor charge if ignored.

Default Stage 2 restrictions have ended....

San Antonio residents can now water their landscapes for more hours on their designated day each week. The San Antonio Water Authority announced today that Stage 2 restrictions have ended and Stage 1 restrictions are now in effect.

Stage 1 restrictions will be lifted when the J-17 monitoring well stays above 660 feet for 30 days. Today, the well stood at 662.7 feet. It has been above 660 feet since Friday.

Stage 2 watering restrictions ended

About damn time! Hopefully nobody feels compelled to water right now, though. I know my yard is crazy green and it's about time to put winterizer down too. I think I'll pick some up tomorrow.
