    Water uses regulated or prohibited under this drought contingency plan (plan) are considered to be non-essential and continuation of such uses during times of water shortage or other emergency water supply conditions are deemed to constitute a waste of water which subjects the offender(s) to penalties as defined in section 38-172 of this plan.
