Drought conditions have been enforced by banning restaurants and cafes that provide free water to customers. The regulation was adopted and enforced quickly due to the ongoing three-year drought in the southwestern United States.

A government report confirmed that free glass of water had been squandered by customers when discarding millions of liters of water a year . And not only is the water removed, but the restaurant also uses more water to wash these glasses in the common sink. Surprisingly, many customers have supported this rule when judging that this is a good way to limit the number of unused water glasses and discard it.

In addition, the city government encourages people to replace the front lawn with crops adapted to dry conditions in the region. In order to limit water use, a 15-member Los Angeles City Council patrol team will check during the limited hours of using water to water the family lawns.

In it, the government is forced to consider the possibility of distributing water according to norms for people in southern California, which is experiencing the worst drought since the last 30 years.
