Authorities reached a deal at the
weekend to avert the threat of people in Rome having water
supplies rationed due to drought - until September at least.
Water utility ACEA had said it would impose rationing in the
capital after the Lazio regional government told it to stop
taking water from nearby Lake Bracciano, the level of which has
fallen significantly.
The deal to avert the rationing will enable ACEA to keep
taking water from the lake until September but at a lower rate.
