Westerly’s Odd-Even Water Rule Explained | Providence News

Westerly, Rhode Island, just rolled out a quirky but serious water-saving rule: odd-numbered homes water on odd days, even-numbered on even days — for 61 days through mid-September. It’s not about running out of water, but about managing how much the town’s pumps can handle. Residents in nearby areas like Stonington are also affected. Commercial spots like car washes are exempt. First offense? A warning. Second? $100. Town manager Shawn Lacey says this might become an annual thing — so stay tuned if you’re in the area.
