Facing a particularly tense water resource situation, the Municipality of Saint-Chély d’Apcher and Veolia warn of the possibility of no longer being able to supply tap water if current consumption persists. An appeal for vigilance and reduced usage has been launched.

The Municipality of Saint-Chély d’Apcher, in partnership with Veolia, has issued a warning message regarding the water resource situation. The supply tension is described as particularly worrying. Authorities emphasize that if the current rate of drinking water consumption continues, the ability to supply tap water could be compromised very soon.
It is therefore imperative, more than ever, to reduce all water uses to the vital minimum. The general call is to save water in all daily actions, particularly by avoiding leaving the tap running unnecessarily and by refraining from taking baths.
The quality of the distributed water is regularly monitored and currently presents no bacteriological problems.
The Municipality and Veolia thank the population for their civic-mindedness and vigilance in this situation.
