Water
Restrictions
Mandatory water restrictions have been in effect in South
Florida since March 22, 2007. In response to improved
regional water resource conditions, the South Florida Water
Management District (SFWMD) has modified emergency water
restrictions across most of Palm Beach County to up to
two-day-a-week watering
Effective April 18th a “Modified Phase II Severe
Water Shortage Order” is in effect for Wellington,
instituting an up to two-day-a-week watering schedule for
residential landscape irrigation with two “watering
windows”. These restrictions are limited to landscape
irrigation, which is the single biggest use of potable water
in South Florida. Restrictions on activities including car,
boat and pressure washing are not being enforced at this
time.
