MidCoast Council is calling on the community to be Water Wiser by adopting its new permanent water conservation measures. The measures ask people to adopt the following behaviours while using water outdoors: Don't spray in the middle of the day - Water your garden before 9am or after 4pm Use a trigger nozzle, watering can or bucket – Only use the water you need Wash your car or boat on the grass – Keep chemicals out of waterways Don't hose down hard surfaces – Use a broom or a bucket and mop. Council's Director of Infrastructure and Engineering Services, Rob Scott, said the measures were practical and easy to follow but would also lead to a significant reduction in water use if everyone got on board.
