As of Thursday, Long Beach residents and businesses can no longer irrigate any landscape with potable drinking quality water during daylight hours or more than three days a week.
Neither can they wash driveways, sidewalks, parking areas, patios or other outdoor cemented or paved areas with a garden hose, unless it is attached to pressurized water broom.
In addition to eliminating landscape over-watering and all water run-off, residents are instructed to immediately reduce time in the shower, install low-flow shower heads, and check water meters for potential leaks.
