GET READY FOR WATERING RESTRICTIONS BERNALILLO COUNTY. STARTING WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1ST, THE USE OF SPRINKLERS IS PROHIBITED BETWEEN 11:00 AM AND 7:00 PM. KATHERINE YUHAS IS WITH THE ALBUQUERQUE-BERNALILLO COUNTY WATER UTILITY AUTHORITY. SHE SAYS HAND WATERING IS STILL ALLOWED. SHE ALSO SAYS DRIP IRRIGATION IS ALLOWED AND IT’S ACTUALLY A BETTER WAY TO WATER YOUR PLANTS SINCE MORE WATER GETS TO THE PLANT, AND LESS OF IT EVAPORATES.
YUHAS SAYS THE WATERING RESTRICTIONS ARE IN PLACE THROUGH OCTOBER. SIMILAR RULES ARE ALSO IN PLACE IN RIO RANCHO.
