Due to a city ordinance, City Manager Erik Walsh in consultation with Robert Puente, President/CEO of SAWS, declared the Stage 2 rules because San Antonio has received less than 40% of normal rainfall since June 2020. According to SAWS, the Edwards Aquifer 10-day average has dropped to 649.9 feet, triggering Stage 2 watering rules. Stage 2 begins whenever the 10-day average of the Edwards Aquifer drops to 650 feet or below.
