In addition to lawn-watering time restraints, one of the more interesting restrictions the New York county being instituted impacts restaurants — and which patrons will be served water
Among the restrictions is a limit on watering lawns, which the county said can only be done twice a week, and on specific days. Odd-numbered addresses can water during times on Mondays and Thursdays, while even numbered addresses can do so on Tuesdays and Fridays. Those with in-ground irrigation systems can use their systems between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m., and those who use manual sprinklers or hoses can water their lawns between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m., the county said.
County officials said the last time they dealt with drought conditions this bad was in 2016, and said that the measures are being adopted"out of an abundance of caution" to preserve water usage. In New Jersey, a statewide drought watch was issued on Tuesday by the state's Department of Environmental Protection — the first one to be issued in six years. For now, that means the state is calling for voluntary reductions in water usage, as Gov. Phil Murphy urged businesses and homes to conserve water.
