Outdoor irrigation is now permitted on Mondays, Thurs-
days and Saturdays
Automated systems should be adjusted accordingly. Al-
though an additional day is now added, be aware that cy-
cling on each station can still be no longer than 15 minutes
total. To maximize absorption, many will utilize a “cycle
and soak” method. That would be sequencing three times
through stations on a system for five minutes each. This
allows water to better percolate into the ground without
runoff to surrounding pavement.
Conservation Must Continue
The State of California has placed permanent restric-
tions on certain water practices. Suppliers throughout the
state are required to monitor uses and promote active con-
servation.
