RELIEF: Residents in Selwyn may not have restrictions on the amount of water they use over summer.
High rainfall may mean no water restrictions
HIGH rainfall throughout the year may mean properties in Selwyn will not have to go on water restrictions over summer. The district council wants to ensure properties connected to its water supplies can have good water service. Asset manager Murray Washington said high rainfall during winter meant the district council is in a good position to meet the increased water demand during summer. “There is no immediate need for mandatory water restrictions,” he said. But Mr Washington said it is asking residents
to consider changing their lawn irrigation timing to help keep the water networks stable. “Water supplies are placed under pressure during summer as many people decide to water their lawns and gardens at the same time,” he said. Residents on district council water supplies are encouraged to water lawns between 9pm-6am or 9am-4pm, as these are times when households use the least water. Residents should avoid irrigating between 6-9am or 4-9pm and check the weather conditions before watering. A district council media
release said watering lawns during the middle of the day, during hot days or when a nor’west wind is blowing, result in a lot of water evaporating. Watering on a cooler overcast day is a better option as it has the opportunity to soak into lawns and gardens. If demand for water increases over summer, water restrictions may be introduced requiring households to avoid watering lawns at specific times. Summer water restrictions are commonly used in New Zealand as a way to manage demand for water.
