Hosepipe ban must not be ignored

A HOSEPIPE ban comes into force across the Swindon area today.

Thames Water, which serves the town, was one of seven water firms to announce the move as the Environment Agency warned of severe drought in the coming months.

It said groundwater levels in the region were close to the lowest ever recorded, and many tributaries of the River Thames were running very low, particularly the River Pang, which is running at a third of average flows.

The move makes it a criminal offence to use a hosepipe for most jobs, such as watering gardens, and washing the car, although using watering cans and buckets of tap water is still legal.

There are a number of exemptions, including fire service operations and the field of play at national and international sporting events.

In this phase of the ban, there are also exemptions for certain businesses to carry out functions vital to their business, such as car washes, window cleaners and garden centres.

Thames Water says anyone found breaching the ban could be prosecuted and face a maximum £11,000 fine, however, the company hopes people will comply out of goodwill.
