Newsom called on local water agencies to introduce new water-use restrictions.
“While we have made historic investments to protect our communities, economy and ecosystems from the worsening drought across the West, it is clear we need to do more,” Newsom said in a statement. “Today, I am calling on local water agencies to implement more aggressive water conservation measures, including having the Water Board evaluate a ban on watering ornamental grass on commercial properties, which will drive water use savings at this critical time.
The executive order also calls on local water agencies to toughen water-use restrictions and enact, at a minimum, Level 2 water contingency plans, which means that an agency might limit the number of days residents can water outdoors. While some agencies are already operating at this level, and have implemented water conservation restrictions to prepare for a water shortage of up to 20%, some agencies are still under Level 1.
