You can water today if your home address is an odd number in Columbia and Richmond counties, which are under Level Two restrictions. Watering is allowed from midnight to 10 a.m. on an even-odd basis based on street address. No watering is allowed on Mondays.
ODD-NUMBERED ADDRESSES: water on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.
EVEN-NUMBERED ADDRESSES: water on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
There are no water restrictions in South Carolina's Aiken, Edgefield, Barnwell and McCormick counties.
WAYS TO SAVE WATER
- Leave lower branches on trees and shrubs and allow leaf litter to accumulate on top of the soil. This keeps the soil cooler and reduces evaporation.
