The Water and Sewerage Authority would like to remind the public about the wise use of water during the prolonged dry weather spell.
The situation continues to be monitored very closely and the current stock levels are:
• Sulby – 78%
• Clypse – 65%
• Kerrowdhoo – 65%
• West Baldwin – 72%
Water is now being transferred from the Sulby Reservoir to the West Baldwin reservoir in order to supplement the supply of raw water to the Douglas Water Treatment Works; and this will continue as long as is necessary.
Chief Executive Officer Peter Winstanley said: ‘This procedure is a normal part of the Authority’s dry weather plan. It is operating effectively and maintaining the stock level in the West Baldwin Reservoir. However, as there is no significant rainfall forecast in the near future we would ask customers to be mindful of the prolonged dry spell and to continue to use water wisely.’
This is your drinking water. Please look after it.
