Some of the notable restrictions issued by the resources boarded included restaurants not being allowed to serve water unless a customer asks for it. Homeowners are barred from watering lawns on rainy days and two days after. You can only water your lawn two days a leak. As for state water resser voices, they are in bad shape. So many local water agencies like here in sonoma are doing okay because of the storms in the winter. The county gets their supply from lake mendocino but still they say the spring will determine if any more conservation is needed. Our reservoirs are in okay shape. What matters is the spring train. That will determine where well end up this summer and where well be in terms of water supply. Reporter customers also barred from spraying their driveways with water and hotel guests mutt be notified of refusing fresh towels and linens. Some of the vin guards hav
