DWP to study watering changes

Los Angeles residents would be allowed to add a day to their twice-weekly lawn-watering schedule - while saving even more water - under a proposal recommended Tuesday by the City Council.Daily News.

The two-day-a-week watering schedule remains in effect while Department of Water and Power officials consider the recommendation to cut sprinkler use from 15 to eight minutes a day, but expand it to three days a week. With the watering time allowed each household reduced from 30 to 24 minutes per week, more water would be conserved.
