City of Red Wing Daily Water Usage

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has issued a drought warning for much of the state because these areas are experiencing moderate to severe drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor.

Because of these conditions, the DNR is asking cities to reduce their daily water usage.

While Red Wing currently is not required to reduce water use, they are  still encouraging citizens to restrict watering lawns or gardens and all other non-essential indoor and outdoor water usage between the hours of 11 am and 6 pm.
