CURRENT WATERING SCHEDULE

Watering Days

Currently, the DWP has authorized its customers to water every other day based on the customer’s address and the current date. If the address is an odd number, the customer can water on those dates, which are odd, and vice versa if the address is an even number. In addition, watering is limited to before 9:00 a.m. and after 6:00 p.m. on the authorized watering day.
