Stage 2 – Water Restrictions now in Effect – 8.20.2026
Aqua WSC has entered “Stage 2 – Moderate Water Shortage Conditions” in response to high system demand. We know Aqua WSC’s water restrictions raise questions about our water supply and what is driving the need for them, so we want to be clear about what is happening.
Stage 2 is being implemented to manage the periods when demand across the system spikes. During period of low rainfall and extreme heat, our members tend to use more water for outdoor irrigation. By adjusting (not eliminating) how we use water outdoors, we can level out those peaks and keep the system running efficiently and cost-effectively.
- Even-numbered addresses: outdoor watering Monday & Thursday
- Odd-numbered addresses: outdoor watering Tuesday & Friday
- Water before 10 a.m. or after 7 p.m.
This schedule applies to landscape irrigation, car-washing, and filling pools.
We know members have more questions about Stage 2, water demand, and our supply. We’ll keep sharing information on how our system operates and why these measures are a core part of responsible water utility management. Visit Aqua WSC’s Drought Contingency Plan to learn more about Stage 2.
