Confirm the property's water provider and obtain required approval before removing turf or starting work. Program rules, eligibility, and funding can change.
Important distinction
Artificial turf installation is not a rebate-eligible lawn-to-garden conversion.
SoCal Water$mart does not approve synthetic/artificial turf as a conversion option. If you are evaluating artificial turf, treat it as a separate installation decision and do not assume a turf-replacement rebate applies.

Plan around current requirements.
Is artificial turf eligible for the regional turf-replacement rebate?
No. SoCal Water$mart states that synthetic/artificial turf is not an approved conversion option. Evaluate artificial turf as a separate installation choice, not as a rebate-eligible lawn-to-garden conversion.
Should I remove turf before applying?
Do not start based on this page alone. Confirm the property’s water provider, read the current official terms, and obtain any required pre-approval before removing turf or starting work.
What if my utility is not listed here?
No amount is published unless it was verified from an official source for this pass. Treat the status as “Verify with your utility” and do not assume a regional or neighboring utility amount applies.
Next Step
Record the utility and approval status in your brief.
A verified program source is useful context, but the utility makes the eligibility decision.
