Stream levels low Conservation Halton requests well users to cut back on use With lower than normal rainfall and reduced stream flows, Conservation Halton is asking residents on wells to reduce their water use by 10 per cent. Conservation Halton has declared a Level 1 Low Water Condition for its watershed based on criteria set by the provincial government. The condition calls for a voluntary cutback of 10 per cent by users of wells or surface water sources. It doesn't apply to those on municipal water systems, but asks those residents to abide by outdoor water use bylaws. Major water users, such as golf courses, aggregate extractors, farm irrigators and others are asked to implement or continue their water conservation programs to reach the 10 per cent target. They are asked to lower the demand on the watercourses and aquifers by pumping water at a lower rate, storing it in ponds or by staggering their pumping times. Across the watershed, rainfall for June was down 50 per cent from the monthly average, and July's precipitation is also well below normal. As a result many creeks and streams are way below normal summer flow rates.
