San Antonio Water System enforces year-round lawn watering rules across most of Bexar County. Drought stages add tighter weekday windows. Hose-end sprinklers are limited to morning or evening hours on a single assigned day per address.
San Antonio Water System provides retail water across the City of San Antonio and large portions of Bexar County. Year-round conservation rules limit landscape irrigation with sprinklers or irrigation systems to one designated day per week based on the last digit of the street address, between specific morning and evening hours. Hand watering and drip irrigation are permitted any day. Aquifer Management Plan stages, triggered by Edwards Aquifer J-17 well levels measured by the Edwards Aquifer Authority, ratchet rules tighter through Stage 4. Bexar County residents on smaller water suppliers should check their utility, but most county-area customers fall under SAWS rules.
Watering on a non-designated day or during prohibited hours triggers SAWS fines starting at over one hundred dollars and rising sharply for repeat offenders.
