  • Draft Water Resources Management Plan Consultation Questions

    We would like to hear your views on our plans to secure reliable water supplies for the future.
  • What best describes you?

  • Question 1 - Do you support our approach to providing your water supplies in the future?
  • Question 2 - Do you think we have considered all the challenges when planning our water supplies for the future?
  • Question 3 - Do you agree that we should do more to reduce demand for water?
  • Question 4 - Do you think it would ever be acceptable to introduce standpipes (a shared water supply for a number of customers located in a public place) or rota cuts (water is only supplied to homes for a few hours each day) to manage water supplies during an extreme drought?
  • Question 5 - Do you think it’s acceptable that we introduce temporary use bans – previously known as hosepipe bans – once in every 10 years to help us manage droughts?
  • Question 6 - Do you support our plans to reduce leaks by at least 15% by 2030?

  • Question 8 - Do you think it’s important that we help our customers use less water by providing water efficiency advice and home visits?
  • Question 9 - Do you support our plans to trial smart meters to provide near real-time information on water use?
  • Question 10 - Do you support our plans to develop new groundwater sources, so we can take more water from underground during the winter?
  • Question 11 - Do you think it’s important that we work with the other water companies in the south east and pipelines are built that allow us to share water with our neighbouring companies?
