We have had conversations about private water supplies, particularly with respect to boreholes - and the right to draw 20,000 l per day without regulation. I believe that these are not usually caught in hosepipe bans etc.
Can anyone point me to the regulations around drawing water from small watercourses and springs. Is there a limit there and are they caught in bans?
It is not an immediate question for me, but I am interested whether such a source could be used for watering gardens etc, or using during construction.
