What can I do differently under Conservation Stage 2?
August 10, 2026The biggest change under Stage 2 is outdoor watering. Automatic irrigation systems and sprinklers are limited to once per week on your assigned watering day and may only be used before 10 a.m. or after 8 p.m.
You can:
- Water with a handheld hose equipped with an automatic shutoff nozzle, bucket, drip irrigation system or non-spraying soaker hose on any day before 10 a.m. or after 8 p.m.
- Water your foundation for up to two hours during permitted watering hours.
- Wash your vehicle at home on your assigned watering day using a bucket or a hose with an automatic shutoff nozzle, or use a commercial car wash any day.
