On the day new landscaping is installed, new plantings and soil may be irrigated once without regard to the watering days and times. Soil irrigation is allowed immediately prior to planting.

Irrigating using reclaimed water, rain harvesting systems and various low volume methods - such as micro-irrigation, container watering and handwater using a hose with an automatic shut-off nozzle - may be conducted at any time.
Pressure washing outdoor buildings or structures may be conducted at any time.
Washing vehicles and boats may be conducted using a hose with an automatic shut-off nozzle. If possible, please wash where the water will flow onto soil or grass.
