Outdoor Water Use for City of Loganville Water System Customers


Updated July 2016
FAQs
Can I water my yard every day?
Yes. As of December 2010, Georgia state law allows residents to water any day of the week, regardless of your address, but only between the hours of 4:00 p.m. and 10:00 a.m.
Are the rules the same for car washing and pressure washing?
No, for outdoor water use not related to landscape irrigation, you may use water any time of the day, any day of the week.
What about the even/odd schedule based on my address? Does that still apply?
No, the even/odd rules no longer apply during non-drought conditions. They are reinstated only when a Level Two Drought is declared by the State.
If I water landscaping with a hose instead of a sprinkler, can I only water before 10:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m.?
No, hand watering with a shut-off nozzle is allowed any time of the day, any day of the week. 
What if I put in new landscape? Do I have to water between 4:00 p.m. and 10:00 a.m.?
No, newly installed landscape is also exempt from the hourly restrictions for the first 30 days following installation. However, 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. is still the most efficient time to water outdoors. During the heat of the day, sun and wind can cause up to 50 percent of the water to evaporate before it is absorbed by plants. 
What about drip irrigation or soaker hoses?
Drip irrigation is highly efficient and therefore it is exempt from the 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. rule. It may be used any time, any day. 
Are parks included in the new schedule?
Athletic fields and parks are exempt from the hourly restrictions. These areas may be watered any time of the day, any day of the week.
