Estellencs Rations Water: 130 Liters per Person – Who Pays for the Thirst?

Answer

Why are holiday homes and weekend visitors part of the water problem in Estellencs?

In small villages like Estellencs, water demand can rise sharply when holiday homes fill up for the weekend. That extra use puts pressure on a system that already has limited reserves and uneven metering. Local officials are therefore asking guests as well as residents to reduce consumption.
