LOS ANGELES—Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) customers can only water their yards twice a week, after the utility implemented stricter water conservation rules on June 1 to combat the state’s drought.

“We want our customers to dig deeper and save water wherever possible, to help get us through the summer without having to further restrict outdoor watering,” said Martin Adams, LADWP general manager and chief engineer.
