> Watering Times have changed
From the 12 March 2009, watering times have changed as daylight hours get shorter and we move into the cooler months of the year.
For customers on Stage 2 restrictions, the major change is to the use of manual sprinklers from 6am - 8am and 5pm - 7pm on the odds and evens system.
Stage 3 customers can use a trigger nozzle hose, bucket, watering can or manual dripper system between
6am - 8am and 5pm -7pm on permitted days.
Stage 4 General Exemption customers can water garden areas with a trigger nozzle hose, bucket or watering can only between 6pm and 7pm on permitted days.
