Water restrictions in O'Fallon, IL — also called the watering schedule, outdoor irrigation rules, or drought ordinance — set which days and hours you can run sprinklers or irrigation.
St. Clair County imposes no countywide lawn-watering or drought restrictions. Any watering limits come from your water utility (largely Illinois American Water) or your municipality. Utilities set conservation appeals and any mandatory restrictions during shortages.
Water-use restrictions in Illinois are set and enforced by local utilities and municipalities, not by the county. Much of the metro-east region, including Belleville and surrounding areas, is served by Illinois American Water, which issues seasonal conservation guidance (watering early morning or evening to cut evaporation, mowing higher) and can impose mandatory restrictions during drought or main breaks. The State of Illinois coordinates drought declarations but does not set municipal watering schedules. To learn if odd/even-day or time-of-day watering rules currently apply to your address, check your water bill provider's alerts page or your city's public-works department rather than the county.
No county penalty. During utility-declared restrictions, violating mandatory watering limits can bring utility fines or service action; municipalities may add their own penalties.
