Water drop falling into water, symbolizing conservation.

The water situation is deemed extremely concerning in Charlieu Belmont Communauté, where water resources are heavily strained, threatening the guarantee of supply.

Charlieu Belmont Communauté, along with all network managers, is facing an exceptional water situation. Water production and distribution capacities are under severe strain, creating a real risk of no longer being able to guarantee the supply of drinking water to all users in the long term.
In this context, every unnecessary consumption exacerbates the situation. The community therefore asks everyone to eliminate all non-essential uses of drinking water, which must be strictly reserved for essential and vital needs such as food and sanitation. This includes watering gardens and green spaces, washing vehicles and exteriors, filling swimming pools, cleaning with drinking water, and any other use that can be avoided.
This requirement also applies to the use of water from private wells or springs, which must also be preserved. This is no longer a simple call for vigilance, but a necessity for immediate action. Every liter saved directly contributes to preserving reserves for tomorrow's needs.
The community and its agents are mobilized to maintain service continuity, but cannot succeed alone if consumption does not decrease significantly. Without a rapid and notable change in practices, supply difficulties, potentially leading to water cutoffs, could occur in some municipalities.
The community counts on everyone's responsibility, civic-mindedness, and solidarity, reminding that water is a non-renewable resource. Every liter, every gesture, every user counts to guarantee tomorrow's water.
