Water restrictions loom sydney dam levels drop in drought-ridden east

Updated

New drought-hit restrictions on water flowing into a Sydney dam have eased overnight as water levels in the underground reservoir fell.

The State Government last night said a reduction in water flows of around 20 cubic kilometres per day (CKD) had lifted restrictions on the Alderridge Reservoir to allow the river to recover to its normal levels, after being in the red in a 12-month drought.

The drought has hit the east coast, causing problems for people seeking refuge in the coastal communities where they live.

It has also meant water supplies from nearby reservoirs to the city are running low and affected residents, especially those living in the outer inner ring subur바카라bs, are struggling to save money to move.

The river, for example, has not been above우리카지노 8C since December, making its recovery difficult, Environment Minister Alan Tudge said.

The reservoir was initially placed under an advisory order, meaning it did not carry on operating for more than 12 months.

It was expected to stay in place until at least April.

The area around it, known as the Dampier Flows Corridor, is known as a major water-supply hub in the city.

While Mr Tudge said conditions around the Alderridge Reservoir would improve over the next few weeks, there were worries over the water supply there, Mr Tudge said.

“We’re going to start seeing a drop in water flows in the next few days,” he said.

“That will ease up but this is temporary… the reservoir is going to get more slowly back to normal levels at some point.

“At this stage in terms of the actual water levels we’re dealing with it on a case-by-case basis but what we want to do is ensure that people are aware when those water flows start to decrease and that those people will be able to make a bid to make the most of the available water.”

Water restrictions affecting flood control works

Meanwhile, an advisory has lifted restrictions on two flood control works being carried out on major properties by Sydney flood control district (SDC) officials on Saturday.

It means the river Dampier in th카지노 사이트e city will start to flow again tomorrow, although there is a five per cent drop in flows for some areas.

The changes mean Sydney’s waterways will remain shut through Friday, while the Dampier Flow
