With cooler conditions settinginacross<br />
the district, <strong>Ashburton</strong> District Council<br />
has today removed all summer water<br />
restrictions in place for its schemes,<br />
excluding thoseonapermanent hosing<br />

The restrictions have been removed<br />
for Chertsey, Fairton, Hakatere, Hinds,<br />
Mayfield, Methven, Mt Somersand Rakaia.<br />
<strong>Ashburton</strong> and Lake Hood had not been<br />
on arestriction.<br />
Council Infrastructure Services Group<br />
Manager, Neil McCann says the seasonal<br />
increase in water consumption has<br />
dropped back to manageable levels and is<br />
satisfied that the restrictions arenolonger<br />
required.<br />
“I’d like tothank all residents for their<br />
cooperation over the warmer months<br />
andfor playing their part to reduceheavy<br />
consumption.<br />
“Water is such a vital resource and<br />
although we are now able to remove<br />
the restrictions, it’s important residents<br />
continue to use their water sensibly and<br />
not be wasteful.”<br />
There are now no summer water<br />
restrictions in place inMid Canterbury,<br />
however the Montalto and Methven-<br />
Springfield schemes remain on a<br />
permanent hosing ban.<br />
