据外媒报道，近日美国南加州地区城市比佛利山（Beverly Hills）批准采取更严格的限水措施，包括禁止帮新落成的游泳池注水及违反限水规定罚1000美元等。
在加州连续3年干旱情况下，州长下令强制用水减量，5位民选议员组成的市议会开会后，最终批准这项限水措施。加州面临严重的干旱问题，迫使当局采取新的严格限水措施，水库也严重缺水。

LOS ANGELES （Reuters） - Beverly Hills, the southern California city renowned for Hollywood-tinged glamour and luxury, approved stricter water restrictions on Tuesday, including bans on filling new swimming pools and $1,000 fines for water violations.
Faced with an order from the governor to cut water use dramatically as the state reels from a three-year drought, the five-member city council approved the measures at the end of a three-hour afternoon meeting.
