So yesterday afternoon, the municipality of Aigen-Schlgl appealed to locals to manage the use of drinking water sparingly. "The water level in the pond is steadily decreasing and the water consumption is greater than the source water supply"

Given the precarious situation, the municipality of Aigen-Schlgl asks its inhabitants to raise these measures also in the family and in the circle of friends, since the supply of drinking water is a priority.
The current situation also gives a boost to these militants Wbaderabfll factory currently planned a Tiefenbrunnen in the neighboring municipality Ulrichsberg lift. They also refer to the scarcity of water in some communities in the region
