water restrictions
Lawn watering limits
Water restrictions are government-imposed limits on how much water residents and businesses can use, typically during droughts or supply shortages.
Common restrictions ban lawn watering on certain days, limit car washing, or prohibit filling swimming pools: We're under water restrictions, so I can only water the garden on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Violations often carry fines.
