SYDNEY - Australia’s biggest city Sydney is running down its water supply at the fastest rate on record with dams expected to fall below half maximum capacity due to the worst drought on record, the government said on Friday.
The total water level in Sydney’s 11 dams was 50.1%, forcing authorities to introduced water restrictions in recent months. At the current rate of decline, discounting rainfall, Sydney dams would only have enough water reserves for another two years, according to figures provided by WaterNSW.
