Local Water Restrictions:

The Governor recently signed a new state law.  Citizens in Georgia can now water any day of the week regardless of your address between the hours of 4 PM and 10 AM.  There is NO watering between 10 AM and 4 PM.  These new time limitations are ONLY for landscape water use.

The new law signed by the governor only relates to landscape uses.  The old odd / even schedule remains in place for all other outdoor uses.  Even and unnumbered addresses may use water outdoors for cleaning, recreation, etc. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays; odd addresses may use water for these activities on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.  There are no “hourly” restrictions for these activities.

NO watering on Friday.
