UPDATE: As of 7/10/24 at 7:30am; Builders or residents who have had new sod put down within the month of June 2024 may water on both Tuesdays and Thursdays through the end of July 2024. This will help establish a root system before going to once a day. The District is not in any way trying to cause loss of money or property so with your cooperation this should be sustainable. Established yards are asked to remain on the once per week schedule. As of 12:30pm,7/8/24 Walnut Creek SUD has rescinded the Drought Contingency Plan from Stage 3 to Stage 2 . Watering will be allowed 1 day a week. Even Addresses on Tuesdays and Odd Addresses on Thursdays. The District will stay at Stage 2 for as long as possible mechanically. The District believes that with the help of customers in conserving water where possible during irrigation, Stage 2 will be sustainable. Please see the Districts Drought Contingency Plan under Notices, on the Districts website. Regulations for Stage 2 can be found there. Thank You

Dear Customer,During the month of June water usage, throughout Walnut Creek SUD went up by 75% . This in the form of almost 40 million gallons of water most of which went toward irrigation. That is like having the district grow 75% overnight. It is not possible to prepair for that kind of usage . July has already taken off at a pace that will far surpass those numbers. This strains the lines throughout the system and strains pumps and motors used to move the water. The water plant and pump stations are currently running around the clock. The District in no way wants to have to put more stringent guidlines on watering days. With that said the District is asking customers with irrigation systems for your cooperation in setting your irrigation systems to water only 10 minutes per zone twice a week ( on your set watering days). Anything past 10 minutes will not be absorbed into the ground and becomes wasted water. Your cooperation will cut back on wasted water and keep your yard healthy. It will also help keep the water system running more efficiently and help insure that adequate water can be provided to everyone in the system. Also allowing the district to be able to stay on the current watering schedule. Thank You James Blackwood,General Manager
