“ and the watering restrictions are covered by the South West Florida Water Management District which has a two day watering restriction on wells, lakes, rivers, streams, canals and potable water sources – and Charlotte county has enacted a stronger watering restriction that only allows for one day of watering or irrigating outside.

Watering is banned between 10:00 AM and 4 PM. Customers may have noticed a drop in water pressure due to reduction in flow.
