Permanent water conservation measures
Permanent
Water Conservation Measures
were introduced in the ACT on 31 March 2006. The new measures were
introduced following a trial period over summer 2005/2006, and replace
what were Stage one of the old Temporary Water Restrictions.
These commonsense measures help our community meet the water saving
targets set out in the ACT's long-term water resource management strategy Think
water, act water.
After the introduction of Permanent Water Conservation Measures, the Temporary Water Restrictions scheme was revised and a new scheme was put in place in September 2006. Under the Temporary Water Restrictions scheme, Stage 3 Temporary Water Restrictions
apply in the ACT and Queanbeyan from
16 December 2006. These are mandatory and enforceable and temporarily replace the Permanent Water Conservation Measures, which are in force at all other times.
