Springdale, AR Landscaping Rules: Water Restrictions (2026)

Springdale's water supply is administered by Springdale Water Utilities, the city-owned utility at 526 Oak Ave, Springdale, AR 72762 (https://springdalewaterar.gov/), in operation since 1919. Springdale Water Utilities does not draw raw water itself: instead, it is one of the four owner-municipalities of Beaver Water District (https://www.bwdh2o.org/, 479-756-3651), a regional wholesale water utility formed in 1959 that draws raw water from Beaver Lake on the upper White River and treats it at the Beaver Water District treatment plant before delivering finished water to Springdale, Fayetteville, Rogers, and Bentonville. Together the four cities distribute water to more than 400,000 people across northwest Arkansas. Springdale Water Utilities operates an active 'Water Conservation' program with voluntary best-practice guidance (https://springdalewaterar.gov/) but does not publish a fixed two-phase reservoir-trigger drought plan of the type found in some Arkansas cities. Mandatory restrictions during drought or supply emergencies are coordinated with Beaver Water District. Beaver Lake (formed by the Beaver Dam on the White River, operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) provides ample storage but can face reduced yield during sustained Ozark drought. Customers are encouraged to follow voluntary best practices: water lawns deeply but infrequently in early morning, use rain-sensing irrigation controllers, and fix indoor leaks promptly. Outdoor irrigation customers should consult Springdale Water Utilities' seasonal-adjustment and pool-fill adjustment forms.
