Georgia Outdoor Water Use Update - June 2009
Share this post by email - 1 Comment - View And/Or Add A Comment »Governor Perdue announced today that due to significant rainfall and improved water supplies the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) has issued a non-drought schedule for outdoor water use for the first time since June 2006.
The State of Georgia has returned to a non-drought schedule for outdoor water use. Under a non-drought schedule, outdoor water use is allowed three days a week on assigned days using odd and even-numbered addresses.
Odd-numbered addresses can water on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Even-numbered and unnumbered addresses are allowed to water on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. Outdoor watering is prohibited on Fridays.
Water use may occur at any time of the day on the assigned days, but to be water efficient, landscape watering should not occur between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. The non-drought schedule is included in the Rules for Outdoor Water Use (PDF document) adopted by the Board of Natural Resources in 2004.

This is cute. Perdue is either naive, stupid, on the take or all of the above if he believes that the people will conserve on their own. Lanier will be in trouble again before the end of spring.
