Water restrictions in Milton, WI — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
Rock County sets no countywide lawn-watering schedule. The state does not require a permit to water a lawn or private garden. Odd/even or drought watering limits, when they exist, come from your city or water utility, not the county.
There is no Rock County ordinance imposing lawn-watering days or drought sprinkling bans; that authority sits with municipal water utilities (Janesville, Beloit and others), which may issue odd/even or time-of-day restrictions during shortages. At the state level, the DNR does not require a permit to pump water for a lawn or non-commercial private garden. Large withdrawals are different: registration applies to any withdrawal that could exceed 100,000 gallons per day. For everyday residential irrigation, check your city or water utility for any seasonal restriction; well water for household lawn use is otherwise unrestricted.
Water-use restrictions and penalties are set and enforced by municipal water utilities; violations during declared restrictions may bring utility fines or service warnings.
