In the rare event that water rationing should be necessary, the City of Houston has adopted a four-step system to implement restrictions on water usage. Each of these steps must be authorized by a written declaration of the Director of Public Works and Engineering and filed with the City Secretary.

The relevant ordinance and details of each category may be found at City of Houston Codes. Please note that the codes are searchable.
