City of Sacramento water conservation representative Steven Upton (L) gives a warning to a Sacramento, California resident who is watering on a mandatory "no watering" day, August 15, 2014. Penalties for illegal watering in Sacramento range from a warning for the first violation to a $1000 fine for the fourth violation. Water regulators in California approved tough new conservation measures last month to limit outdoor water use. California is in the third year of a catastrophic drought that has diminished the Sierra Nevada snow pack, which normally feeds the state's rivers and streams with cool water.
