Outdoor Watering Rules in Effect May 1 to October 1

The annual outdoor watering rules are now in effect. The watering rules incorporate best practices for efficient outdoor water use that will help keep your landscape healthy. A copy of the watering rules was mailed to each home and business in the District in later April.
