San Antonio Water System customers will see a change in water restrictions. Starting August 4, Stage 3 restrictions will be dropped in favor of Stage 2 guidelines. This change is largely technical and does not affect designated watering days or times.

The main difference is the end of a surcharge for single-family households that use more than 20,000 gallons of water per month. The change occurs because the aquifer's level has improved, rising above a certain threshold. For more information on the specifics of the change, customers can refer to the San Antonio Water System's news release.
