This well has continuously fallen, and is now very nearly dry. I have never known it before with less than 7ft. or 8 ft. of water during the middle six months of the year. The drought of the past summer has aggravated, but has not caused, the short water supply, for we have had such droughts before. It is due to the dry time from October, 1897, to April, 1898. ....

Since that time, the weather has been drier than average and the reservoir is now less than half full. This has increasingly serious implications for water supply prospects in 1977. A ban on the use of hosepipes for watering private gardens and washing private motorcars was imposed on 1st June 1976 and appeals for economy in the use of water have been made to domestic and industrial consumers. On 16th July 1976 the Company applied for an Order authorising them to reduce the quality of compensation water required to be discharged from the reservoir and the Secretary of State for the Environment has decided to make the Order. In view of the continuing deterioration of the water situation, there is an urgent need to take further steps to conserve the stocks of water in the reservoir. Notice is hereby given that the Sunderland and South Shields Water Company has applied to the Secretary of Statef or the Environment for an Order under section 1 (3) (b) of the Drought Act 1976 authorising the Company to prohibit or limit during a period of six months the use of water within its area of supply for the following purposes: (a) the watering, by hosepipe, sprinkler or other apparatus, of parks, ornamental gardens, lawns, recreation grounds, sports grounds, playing fields, golf courses or racecourses, whether publicly or privately owned ; (b) the filling, whether wholly or partially, of privately owned swimming pools and ornamental ponds other than fish ponds ; (e) the operation of mechanical car washers, whether automatic or not; (d) the washing of road vehicles for any reason other than safety or hygiene ; (e) the cleaning of the exterior of buildings ; (/) the operation of ornamental fountains or cascades, including any where water is recycled ; (g) the operation, in relation to any building or other premises, of any cistern which flushes automatically, during any period when the premises are wholly or substantially unoccupied.

A ban on the use of hosepipes for watering private gardens and washing private cars in Wear Division was imposed on 1st June 1976 and appeals for economy in the use of •water have been made to domestic and industrial con- •sumers. On 16th July 1976 the Authority applied to the Secretary of State for the Environment for an Order authorising them to reduce for a period of 6 months the •quantity of compensation water required to be discharged from Bumhope Reservoir and Tunstall Reservoir. A similar shortage of rain in upper Teesdale and in the 'Stokesley area of Cleveland and North Yorkshire has resulted 11977 in a diminution of the flows from springs which are the source of public water supply in those areas. Accordingly the Authority is imposing a ban on the use of hosepipes in both areas from 30th August 1976.

Since that time, the weather has been drier than average and the reservoir is now less than half full. This has increasingly serious implications for water supply prospects in 1977. A ban on the use of hosepipes for watering private gardens and washing private motorcars was imposed on 1st June 1976 and appeals for economy in the use of water have been made to domestic and industrial consumers. On 16th July 1976 the Company applied for an Order authorising them to reduce the quality of compensation water required to be discharged from the reservoir and the Secretary of State for the Environment has decided to make the Order. In view of the continuing deterioration of the water situation, there is an urgent need to take further steps to conserve the stocks of water in the reservoir.
