Abstract

These Regulations are organized in 3 Parts. Part 2 provides for water restrictions; the Part establishes that a regulated entity may restrict the supply of water by any or all of the following means: (a) by restricting the purposes for which the water may be used; (b) by specifying the purposes for which the water may not be used; (c) by restricting the days or times, or both, when the water may be used; (d) by restricting the quantity of the water that may be used by a person, or at premises, in a specified period; (e) by restricting the means or methods by which the water may be used. The restriction of water supply might be to all, or part only, of the area to which the regulated entity ordinarily supplies the water. In addition classes of persons, in whole or in part, may be exempted from a restriction of the supply of water.
