Explaining Outdoor Water Use Restrictions

Outdoor water use restrictions, or watering schedules, can be a cost-effective way to reduce water use quickly in times of drought and as a long-term efficiency measure – but not all restrictions are created equal. Learn from conservation experts about the basics of water use restrictions, the various options available to water managers, and how to maximize savings from this efficiency measure. This webinar covers: 1) Types of restrictions: During drought vs. Permanent measures; 2) Examples of successful restrictions: Frisco, TX and Valencia, CA; and 3) Considerations for design, enforcement and evaluation.
