New executive order will:
-- Impose significant cuts in water use on campuses, golf courses and other large landscapes (NO MORE FOUNTAIN RUNS???).
-- Replace 50 million square feet of lawns throughout the state with "drought tolerant landscaping.
-- Create a temporary, statewide consumer rebate program to replace old appliances with water efficient models.
-- Prohibit new homes and developments from irrigating with potable water unless water-efficient drip irrigation systems are used.
-- Ban watering of ornamental grass on public street medians.
-- Require agricultural water users to report more water use information to state regulators.
