A site inspection may be scheduled to verify the existence of a well.

Effective January 16, 2007, the Southwest Florida Water Management District declared a Phase 2 Water Shortage for its 16 county area due to continued lack of significant rainfall and an increased demand for water.

Private well users may water once a week according to the following schedule:

• Odd number addresses may irrigate on Sunday only
  
• Even number addresses may irrigate on Saturday only.
  

Irrigation is permitted only between the hours of 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. on the above days.

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.
