Strict Guidelines for Landscape Irrigation

Following irrigation guidelines will conserve water and protect South Florida’s water resources during the region’s dry season

The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) issued an order on water conservation measures with strict guidelines to property owners to follow irrigation schedules that conserve water amid drier than average conditions.

The District has lawn watering restrictions all year. Amid recent dry conditions, property owners should take additional measures to conserve water including:

The District reminds residents that hand washing uses very little water, and residents are encouraged to continue frequent hand washing to prevent the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) according to CDC guidelines. The order does not in any way restrict residents from following those CDC guidelines.

Residents can also conserve water by following SFWMD’s simple water conservation tips.
