2024 Friendswood Water Restrictions

Whether you’re a long-time resident or new to Friendswood, it’s crucial to stay informed about the 2024 water restrictions to ensure you’re doing your part to conserve our precious water resources.

Overview of 2024 Water Restrictions

Due to ongoing drought conditions and the need for sustainable water usage, the City of Friendswood has implemented these water restrictions for 2024. These measures aim to reduce water consumption and ensure there is enough supply for everyone throughout the year.

Key Restrictions

  1. Watering Schedule
    • Odd-Numbered Addresses: Outdoor watering is allowed on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
    • Even-Numbered Addresses: Outdoor watering is allowed on Thursdays and Sundays.
    • No Watering on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays.
  2. Watering Times
    • Watering is only permitted between 6 AM – 10 AM and 7 PM – 11 PM to reduce evaporation losses.
  3. Prohibited Activities
    • Washing driveways, sidewalks, and other hard surfaces.
    • Using water for decorative fountains that do not recirculate water.
    • Watering during rain or within 48 hours following measurable rainfall.

Exemptions

  • Drip Irrigation and Hand Watering using a hose with a shut-off nozzle are allowed any day, provided they follow the specified watering times.
  • New Landscaping can be watered more frequently for the first 30 days after installation, but it must still adhere to the designated watering times.

Tips for Effective Water Use

  • Check for Leaks: Ensure your irrigation system is in good working order and fix any leaks promptly.
  • Smart Controllers: Invest in smart irrigation controllers that adjust watering schedules based on weather conditions.
  • Mulch Your Gardens: Mulching helps retain soil moisture, reducing the frequency of watering.
  • Plant Native Species: Native plants are better adapted to local climate conditions and require less water.
