7.3 Dem<strong>and</strong> Management<br />

CHW has implemented permanent Level One water restrictions in the Coffs Harbour Local<br />

Government Area since 19 June 2004.<br />

The main impact of Level One water restrictions is:<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

Sprinklers <strong>and</strong> unattended hoses are banned between 8.00am <strong>and</strong> 4.00pm.<br />

Building maintenance allowed with trigger nozzle hoses or pressure cleaners.<br />

Hoses can only be used to wash driveways, paved areas <strong>and</strong> roofs <strong>for</strong> health or safety<br />

reasons. Pressure cleaners are allowed.<br />

Car washing is allowed providing, where practical, the runoff is onto a lawn <strong>and</strong> not<br />

down the drain.<br />
