The director of the Georgia Environmental Protection Division has declared a level two drought response across the state and will require all Georgians to follow a more stringent outdoor water-use schedule.
A level two drought declaration limits outdoor water use to mornings only. The new outdoor watering schedules statewide are as follows:
• Odd numbered addresses may water from midnight to 10 a.m. Tuesdays, Thursday and Sundays.
• Even numbered and unnumbered addresses may water from midnight to 10 a.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays.

No outside water use is allowed.
