Water Restrictions

Saving...

San Antonio's conservation ordinance helps conserve and extend our water resources. It prohibits water waste and imposes watering rules when the Edwards Aquifer level drops. To make San Antonio’s conservation ordinance more effective, efficient, and fair, SAWS has adopted reasonable adjustments to our drought plan – to save water now and reduce the chance of stricter rules in the future. 2024 watering rules changes were approved by SAWS Board of Trustees, May 23 and City Council June 20.
