More Outdoor Watering
Rome, GA In response to the City of Rome's petition to the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) for a modification to the current non-statutory water use restrictions (Level IV) established by the State, a Level IVc modification has been approved within the City's service area through December 31, 2008.
Under Level IVc, all outdoor water uses are allowed on an odd/even basis, three days per week between midnight and 10:00am. Odd addresses may water on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays; even addresses on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays.
The City of Rome is still within the Drought Response Level IV area, but this modification allows for all types of outdoor watering including lawn care maintenance, gardening, automobile washing, and pool maintenance.
For additional questions, please visit the Georgia EPD website http://www.gaepd.com and click on "Drought and Water Use Information" for a list of frequently asked questions or call the Drinking Water Compliance Program at 404-656-4807 or Water Withdrawal Permitting Program at 404-765-6326.

| Atlanta wants our water, get used to it. They want to grow cause the money comes in. Laws don't mean anything to them.

Do business have to comply with this as well? I just passed a couple of businesses running their sprinklers now at 5:50 p.m.
