As of June 1, residents with even addresses will be permitted to irrigate on Tuesdays, and those with odd addresses on Thursdays, for eight minutes per irrigation station.
Exemptions to the restriction include the use of drip irrigation systems and hand watering. LVMWD encouraged residents to water trees by hand to provide them with enough water to survive.
"This is one of the most difficult decisions I have had to make as a Board member," said LVMWD Board President Jay Lewitt."Our customers, like 6.6 million other Southern Californians, must take responsibility for our water usage to avoid even more strict outdoor irrigation restrictions that could come later this year. We need everyone to do their part." Thanks for reading CBS NEWS.
