They were putting up standpipes in the villages, and so on, and during the whole time there was my supply going at full strength.
Has it been established whether standpipes work under water?
To my knowledge, no one is in favour of standpipes.
They were rationed and had to use standpipes.
About 20,000 properties are without their mains water supply, but arrangements have been or are being made to provide supplies from standpipes or tankers.
Standpipes have been erected for all except a few properties.
Where interruptions to the piped supply are unavoidable, they provide emergency supplies in bowsers or by standpipes.
Either it will be done on the basis of rota cuts for 17 hours a day, or standpipes will be erected.
