Residents connected to the municipality’s water system are again asked to limit their outside water usage and to follow the water restrictions in place. In the past few days, the Water Treatment Plant in Rockland treated and distributed the following quantity of drinking water:
- Saturday, May 29: 6,800 m3
- Sunday, May 30: 5,900 m3
- Monday, May 31: 6,900 m3
The meter attached shows that according to the water consumption of the past few days, the City of Clarence-Rockland is in orange level. This higher than normal demand creates a strain on the Rockland Water Treatment Plant, where it cannot maintain the proper water level for distribution. This could result in not having enough water to fight a fire. Due to the current situation, the City could soon issue a ban in the coming days if the situation does not improve.
