Private Wells
Register Your Private Well
The City of St. Petersburg is requesting all customers using private wells for irrigating their landscapes to register their wells. There is no fee for registration. Well registration will serve as a means of accurately identifying private well use throughout the City. Registering will also assist water restriction compliance staff in enforcing current water restrictions, and in identifying favorable locations for future private wells.
Please click here to register your private well.
A site inspection may be scheduled to verify the existence of a well.
Watering Restrictions
St. Petersburg is in a water caution area as defined by the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) and is committed to water conservation.

- Addresses ending in an even number or the letters A through M are permitted irrigate, if necessary, on Tuesday and Saturday only.
- Addresses ending in an odd number, the letters N through Z, and locations with no address are permitted irrigate, if necessary, on Wednesday and Sunday only.
- Irrigation is allowed from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. and/or from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m.
The City of St. Petersburg encourages citizens to use all water resources efficiently and to limit all use wherever possible. For more information on water conservation, please call 893-7261. Thank you for conserving our valuable water resources.
