water wholesaler announced Wednesday it is rescinding emergency outdoor watering restrictions it imposed last year.
MWD officials noted that while it is lifting the restriction, the state's water supply remains limited so residents should continue to conserve wherever possible. The wholesaler also noted that its member agencies can continue to impose watering restrictions at their discretion. But as winter storms began hitting the region and rain and snow replenished supplies, the state announced in January that it would deliver 30% of requested allocations. That figure increased to 35% in February.Heavy rain and excessive runoff may result in dangerous flooding of rivers, creeks, streams and flood-prone locations, the NWS said.
