reductions in water restriction measures

Water restrictions in Hérault: lighter measures for certain watersheds

Lifting of restrictions on Hérault upstream and Jaur

The rains at the beginning of the month helped improve the hydrological situation in Héraultleading to a reduction in restrictions on the use of water in several watersheds in the department.

The Hérault upstream and Jaur watersheds are now out of restriction. This means that individuals, professionals and communities can use water there without limitation.

Reduction of restrictions on the upstream and downstream Orb

In the Orb upstream and downstream watersheds, restrictions are moving from alert to vigilance. This means that certain uses, such as watering gardens or washing cars, are authorized again, but at specific times.

Maintaining restrictions on the rest of the department

Restrictions remain in force in the rest of the department, with varying alert levels depending on the catchment area. Despite the improvement in the situation, the prefect of Hérault always calls for vigilance and reasoned consumption of water.
