SFWMD Issues Water Shortage Warning

🚨 Water Conservation Alert 🚨

SFMWD issues a water shortage warning due to low water levels, urges conservation, and suggests voluntary water use restrictions.

The South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) is currently asking residents and businesses to follow voluntary water use restrictions due to declining water levels.

💧 At this time, conservation efforts are voluntary — but your participation is important.

If voluntary measures are not enough to reduce demand, SFWMD may declare a Water Shortage Order, which would implement mandatory water use restrictions in critical areas.

Water use restrictions are designed to:
✔ Protect our public water supply
✔ Prevent serious harm to water resources
✔ Ensure water remains available for essential needs

We encourage everyone to take simple steps now to reduce water use, including limiting irrigation, checking for leaks, and avoiding unnecessary outdoor watering.

Working together helps protect our community’s water supply.
