Hosepipe ban lifted
South East Water has announced it is lifting its temporary use ban restricting the use of hosepipes with immediate effect.
The Company is heavily dependent on groundwater supplies which provide 75 per cent of its water. These were at record low levels following the two-year drought but rainfall since April means the underground aquifers are now recovering.
Paul Seeley, South East Water’s Asset Director, said: “We are pleased to be able to lift the restrictions and return to a normal service for customers. We would like to thank them for their support while they have been in place; their efforts have helped to keep demand for water well below levels normally experienced at this time of year.”
