Water Restrictions Using Reclaimed Water

Reclaimed Water Conservation Needed - Adhere to Allowed Days - No Watering Between 8 a.m. - 6 p.m.

Our region periodically experiences extremely dry conditions that can place high demands on reclaimed water supplies. Pasco County Utilities works diligently to manage reclaimed water supplies for our residents. We encourage all of our reclaimed water customers to adhere to the County ordinance that allows for twice per week watering. Adherence to the water schedule will extend reclaimed water supplies through dry seasons and allow everyone to maintain their landscaping. Please do your part with conserving our community’s resource.
