During periods of abnormally low rainfall there may be a drought.

We take our responsibility to maintain and manage the resilience of our water resources seriously and adopt a measure to ensure future resilience.
It identifies the percentage of the population that is at risk of severe supply restrictions in the event of a drought happening once every 200 years (equivalent to a 0.5% chance each year).
