Last week the Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD) Board of Directors declared a Stage 3 Water Shortage. In accordance with its Water Shortage Contingency Plan, a Stage 3 shortage requires: 20% water use reduction; limits hours of watering to after 4:00 p.m. and before 9:00 a.m.; and limits outdoor watering to three days per week.
These new restrictions go into effect immediately. The CVWD board did not adopt drought rates as part of this action and is calling on its customers to do their part to get through this together.
“CVWD customers are conscientious about water use,” commented CVWD Board President Randall Reed. “Over the last decade, customers have participated in numerous water efficiency programs and received rebates that have helped them be better water stewards. I would like to personally thank all CVWD customers for their hard work in helping us manage our water supply and making our area more drought resilient.”
