Spring is now with us, but please remember that watering of gardens can still only be carried out twice weekly!

Watering times are before 9am or after 6pm on watering days for schemed water users. The two day watering roster does not apply to bore users, but the 9am - 6pm daily restriction still applies.

By watering outside main daylight hours, evaporation and water wastage is avoided, which helps conserve this precious resource.

"Responsible water usage is essential to ensure we have a reliable water supply now and in the future," said Aqwest Chief Executive Officer Gary Hallsworth.
