San Antonio drops back to Stage I drought restrictions On January 3, with the J-17 well having maintained a level above 650' since December 3, San Antonio moved to Stage I drought restrictions. The Stage designation in any given city does not coincide always with the Stage as declared by the Edwards Aquifer Authority. The way the system works, the EAA requires certain percentage cutbacks in pumping under certain springflow and J-17 levels conditions, and cities are free to meet them however they choose. If a city had alternate water supplies, for example, it might be able to meet its EAA cutback without imposing any restrictions at all on its customers. If you live in a municipality outside San Antonio, you can check them for any restrictions that may apply to you. See the details of San Antonio's restrictions here.
