Dont waste drinking water - Corp's advice
According to the Corporation, the level was 52.93 ft on Wednesday, as against the full reservoir level of 67.44 ft. It had dipped from 53.13 on Tuesday. This is the fourth consecutive year of the level being maintained at 52 to 55 ft (see table) in mid-February.Monsoon failure had brought the level down to 25 ft in the corresponding period in 2004. Good monsoon from that year ensured scarcity-free summers till now. But, the Corporation advises caution. Though the same level is maintained, the number of people using Siruvani water in the city and the peripheral areas is rising fast.
