Angelenos have made water conservation a way of life, but with the ongoing drought conditions, we are urging our customers to do more. Mayor Eric Garcetti recently announced that the City of Los Angles will move to Phase 3 of its Emergency Water Conservation Ordinance– requiring all LADWP customers to cut the number of outdoor watering days from three to two. LADWP customers with street addresses ending in odd numbers, watering will be limited to Mondays and Fridays. For all customers with addresses ending in even numbers, watering will be limited to Thursdays and Sundays. If approved by City Council, the transition would go into effect June 1. 

We continue to offer our customers rebates and incentives, which helps customers conserve more water and to save money on their bill. We also expanded our water conservation rebates with a 25% increase to our high-efficiency clothes washer rebate, from $400 to $500, as well as a more than 65% increase to our water-efficient toilet rebate, from $150 to $250.

The less water we use now, the more we have for when we need it most. We’re in the together. Keep up the good work L.A.!

Essential Work Continues

Recently, Mayor Eric Garcetti, 12th District Councilmember John Lee and State Water Resources Control Board member Sean Maguire joined uto dedicate the newly completed Los Angeles Reservoir Ultraviolet Disinfection Plant (LARUVDP) in the San Fernando Valley. This second UV facility supplements the existing Dr. Pankaj Parekh Ultraviolet Disinfection Facility which treats water with ultraviolet light that has already undergone several treatments before it enters the LA Reservoir. The new UV plant treats the water with ultraviolet light once again, at the outlet of the Los Angeles Reservoir, before it enters LA’s water distribution pipes that transport water to LA’s homes and businesses.
