InterLinc: Phase 2: Voluntary Designated Day Schedule for Outdoor Watering

1. Implementation.
Phase 2 may be implemented when the customer usage exceeds 90 million gallons per day for three (3) consecutive days; or reservoir operational storage levels do not refill above the 24-hour average of 70 percent from day to day for three (3) consecutive days; or the wellfield supply is reduced to less than 70 percent of operational volume. (See Appendix "A", 1)

When the Director of Public Works and Utilities deems it appropriate, using best professional judgment and considering weather conditions, weather forecasts, river flow conditions and water system operations, recommendations may be made to the Mayor for acceleration to an appropriate Phase in the Plan.
Public and City Involvement.
All measures implemented in Phase 1 shall continue with the following additions:
1. Lincoln Water System customers shall be asked to VOLUNTARILY limit outdoor water use to a designated day schedule.
2. Those properties having street addresses ending with an even number (0, 2, 4, 6, 8) may water on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday; addresses ending with odd numbers (1, 3, 5, 7, 9) may water on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.
3. Large apartment complexes, townhome associations, homeowners associations, and businesses, with more than one street address at the same location shall declare a designated day outdoor watering schedule for each street address and shall notify the Lincoln Water System of the declaration before beginning to water under Phase 2.
4. The washing of automobiles, trucks, trailers, boats, and other types of mobile equipment shall be permitted on the designated day schedule unless the "health and safety" (See Appendix "A", 14) of the public is contingent upon frequent cleaning (i.e., garbage trucks, vehicles transporting food perishables, sludge trucks, and emergency vehicles.)
Termination.
Phase 2 shall remain in effect until conditions indicate a more restrictive Phase is necessary, or until rescinded by the Mayor.
