Water restrictions in Cherry Hill, NJ — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
Camden County sets no lawn-watering rule. Mandatory outdoor-watering restrictions in New Jersey only take effect when the Governor declares a drought emergency; under a Drought Watch or Warning, NJDEP asks for voluntary conservation. Local water utilities may add rules.
New Jersey's water-use restrictions are governed by NJDEP, not counties. NJDEP uses a four-tier system (Normal, Watch, Warning, Emergency). Only a Governor-declared Drought Emergency triggers statewide mandatory restrictions and fines. During a Watch or Warning, conservation is voluntary, though strongly urged. NJDEP guidance notes watering a lawn once or twice weekly for no more than 30 minutes is adequate and recommends watering after sunset and before morning. Individual water purveyors serving Camden County towns may impose their own odd/even-day sprinkler schedules, so check your water provider in addition to the state drought status.
No fines under voluntary tiers. During a declared Drought Emergency, mandatory restrictions carry state penalties; local utilities may separately fine sprinkler-schedule violations.
