§ 64-3. Declaration of voluntary conservation.  


Latest version.
  • Whenever the county board of commissioners finds that a potential shortage of water supply is indicated, it shall be empowered to declare by adoption of a resolution that voluntary conservation conditions exist, and that the water director shall, on a daily basis, monitor the supply and demand upon that supply. In addition, the board is authorized to call upon all water customers to employ voluntary water conservation measures (see addendum) to limit water use (especially class 3 users) and eliminate the waste of water. This resolution shall be published in a newspaper of general circulation in the areas which qualify under G.S. 1-597, and may be publicized through the general news media or any other appropriate method of making such resolutions public.
