What is a NEUB?
A Non Essential Use Ban (NEUB) is a restriction on mains water use we can apply for under a Drought Order and implement when there is a threat of serious water shortages. It targets commercial and non-household water use and requires approval by the Secretary of State for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
This is an action included in our Water Resources Management Plan(opens in a new tab) and Drought Plan(opens in a new tab), but we do not take it lightly. We only apply and implement it under exceptional circumstances, and this is no longer needed.
