Additional restrictions will be introduced to the current restrictions in place.

For Example:
All domestic customers using more than 40 kilolitres per month will be given two weeks notice to reduce consumption or fix leaks. Failing that a flow meter restrictor will be installed to limit the usage.
Apart from concrete activities, contractors must use recycled water from Fishwater Flats or any other approved wastewater treatment works.
Borehole water will be made available free of charge for non-potable use from the Motherwell Cemetry under strict access conditions.
All current and future borehole users must register at the NMBM Infrastructure & Engineering Directorate: Water & Sanitation.
As soon as the dams reach 40% levels the Part C of the approved Tariff Schedule will be introduced for residential and institutional consumers.
Part B of the schedule of tariffs be introduced for commercial and industrial premises.
