So how many SC golf courses and lawns are getting watered every day?
Lawn watering already limited to 3x per week in Palmdale, north of Los Angeles. Leave my golf course alone. :-D
When we redid our back yard last year I researched artificial turf alternatives to a sod lawn. They are relatively expensive, but pretty dang good looking and feeling— and of course require zero water and much less maintenance.
I practically begged my wife to let me install it, but she INSISTED on a real lawn. Now, I’m out there practically every weekend mowing, weeding, adjusting and fixing sprinklers, reseeding trouble spots, etc. The water bill is ridiculous. Plus, we got a female dog recently and every time she pees on the lawn she burns a hole in it.
Never gonna listen to that dang woman again.

Plus washing the Mercs, BMers, Jags and Escalades several times each week with the fountains and swimming pools being refreshed daily or hourly.
Then, add the daily avalance of illegal third world aliens, who love their new free water in the past 3 decades.
In Jan 1977 during the height of N California’s last great drought, our company had a meeting in the LA area.
As we rode the buses from LAX into the LA hotel, we saw people washing their cars and watering their lawns with zero concern about wasting water.
Our people from Marin, Sonoma, East Bay and the Jose Area couldn’t flush their toilets, tooks navy showers and their lawns and yards were dead or dying went beserk.
Our S Calis didn’t know why we were so bitter and hostile re how they used our water.
Since then, we have no new dams, and envirals have welcomed the illegal aliens, who use a lot of water while demanding more water for fish.
The governator and most of Sacramento worry more about the non global warming than the reality of less water for a growing population.
