ZAGREB, Aug 19 (Hina) - The water level in springs, underground waters and storage lakes is falling and has reached an all-time low. The situation is worsening by the day and if the drought period continues, there is no telling what
may happen with water supply in individual systems, the Croatian Water Management Company said in a report on Tuesday.
ZAGREB, Aug 19 (Hina) - The water level in springs, underground
waters and storage lakes is falling and has reached an all-time low.
The situation is worsening by the day and if the drought period
continues, there is no telling what may happen with water supply in
individual systems, the Croatian Water Management Company said in a
report on Tuesday. #L#
It is mostly small supply systems that have encountered problems in
water supply, while large systems are functioning as usual or with
only slight difficulties, the report says.
It is hard to predict what will happen if the drought continues, but
water reductions will probably be introduced in areas that have not
had cuts so far, according to the report.
The company appeals to consumers to use water sparingly, and to
report any malfunctions to utility companies so they can be removed
as soon as possible.
The most difficult situation with the water supply system is on the
islands of Pag, Lastovo and Vis where water reductions are being
carried out at night.
