Effective March 1, 2024, we are entering Stage 1 water restrictions.
Below are the outlines for Stage 1
Section 4.02 Stage 1 response-Mild water shortage conditions/water awareness.
A. Goal. To raise public awareness of water demand conditions and achieve a voluntary reduction in
daily water demand to 85% or less of the total production capability.
B. Supply management measures. The President of the Board of Directors or his/her designee shall
implement supply management measures that include reduction in flushing of water mains, visually
inspect lines and repair leaks on a daily basis, monthly review of customer use/consumption records
and follow-up on any that have unusually high usage, as well as conservation of incidental water
usage at water and wastewater plants. Activities shall be implemented which include increased
monitoring of meters, gauges, water levels in tanks, and water well production data. Attached hereto
as Exhibit 1 is a sample notice to customers of the implementation of the voluntary water use
restrictions.
C. Voluntary Water Use Restrictions for Reducing Demand. Water customers are requested to
voluntarily limit the use of water for nonessential purposes and to practice water conservation:
(1) Restricted Days/Hours. Water customers are requested to voluntarily limit the irrigation of
landscaped areas with hose-end sprinklers or automatic irrigation systems to Sundays and Thursdays
for customers with a street address ending in an even number (0, 2, 4, 6 or 8), and Saturdays and
Wednesdays for water customers with a street address ending in an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7 or 9), and
to irrigate landscapes only between the hours prior to 8:00 a.m. and the hours after 8:00 p.m. on
designated watering days. However, irrigation of landscaped areas is permitted at any time if it is by
means of a hand-held hose, a faucet-filled bucket or watering can of five (5) gallons or less or drip
irrigation system.
(2) All operations of the District shall adhere to water use restrictions prescribed for Stage 2 of the
Plan.
(3) Water customers are requested to practice water conservation and to minimize or discontinue
water use for non-essential purposes.
