Customers of the Santa Clarita Valley Water Agency are being asked once again to pause all outdoor water use from now until Feb. 24. This temporary halt is the second phase of the state-scheduled maintenance at Castaic Lake.

We take a deep dive with SCV Water Communications Manager Kevin Strauss as he breaks down what the temporary shut down means. He also explains why the maintenance is done during the winter season and the importance of water conservation.

The shut-off request extends to all outdoor water uses including, but not limited to:

— Irrigating personal landscapes or common areas in business parks or HOAs

— Washing vehicles by hand

— Filling or refilling pools

— Using water for grading in new developments

— Any other major uses of water that can be postponed until the following week
