No water rationing

ACCORDING to Teresa Ribera, the Minister for Ecological Transition, the Spanish government has no intention of implementing water rationing in the country to combat the current drought conditions. Speaking in Congress recently, the official pointed out that there are sufficient water resources in Spain to last until September.

However, she did ask consumers to “be extremely cautious” in the consumption of a resource that is becoming increasingly limited. “Our conviction is that we must be extremely cautious in the way we con‐sume water,” said Ribera. She continued: “In principle, with the volume of water in reservoirs and the contributions that can be made from emergency wells, we can cover the hardest months, until Septem‐ber.” Ribera warned though of the seriousness of a situation that: “we are experiencing more and more frequently.”

Supply systems with more than 20,000 inhabitants are obliged by law to have emergency supply plans. These include measures ranging from awareness‐raising to watering parks and gardens with reused water and even rationing. This is something that 40 per cent do not currently comply with.
