Water resources ‘mismanaged’

Water resources ‘mismanaged’

That is the view of environmental pressure group Concern, who say that Jersey’s water resources have been mismanaged for the past 26 years and the situation cannot continue.They propose the introduction of a metered sewerage charge – so that it is truly user-pays – as part of a long overdue water management strategy, although ability to pay has to be taken into account, they say.Concern’s criticism of the Island’s water management comes at a time when supplies are running low as the summer heatwave continues.

A hosepipe ban is already in place.
