No water shortage in IOM says MU chair

Reservoirs well stocked despite dry spell

Water levels at the Island's reservoirs are in a 'good state' - despite the prolonged spell of warm, dry weather.

Hosepipe bans in parts of the United Kingdom have raised concerns over the situation here, after record breaking temperatures were reached in June.

Last week, Manx Utilities issued a plea to Isle of Man residents to use water wisely, and outlined a list of ways in which it could be conserved.

MU Chair Dr Alex Allinson says the advice is precautionary.
