Watering your lawn in Lancaster might get very expensive

A new water conservation law prohibits Lancaster residents from watering their lawns between 10 am. and 10 pm. First-time offenders will get a warning. The second offense will trigger a water-use audit. But it's the third offense that could really hurt: a citation and $1,000 fine.
The same punishment could also apply for third-timers who let water flow freely from a hose while washing their cars or hosing down a driveway, reports the Antelope Valley Press.
