13. Who will enforce the prohibition of irrigating non-functional turf?

CVWD will communicate the prohibition to affected customers. The state emergency regulation makes violations of the prohibition an infraction, which CVWD is authorized to enforce. In addition, anyone may report water waste, including irrigation of non-functional turf on a commercial, industrial, or institutional property to the State Water Resources Control Board at SaveWater.CA.gov. The SWRCB may use its enforcement authority to respond to violations of the emergency regulation.
