Government determines water rationing in Algarve hotels

There has already been a meeting between the Portuguese Environment Agency and Algarve hoteliers to define the terms of this measure

The Minister for the Environment and Climate Action, Duarte Cordeiro, announced this Friday that there will be a reduction in water consumption in tourist resorts in the Algarve. The rationing agreed with the entrepreneurs should affect spaces that have a “large consumption of water”, such as golf courses and green spaces.

“A meeting was held between the Portuguese Environment Agency and a group of tourist resorts in the Algarve, where it was decided to ration and manage the limits of water consumption that they can adopt. This means that there is a limitation of water on the part of this sector”, pointed out the minister, at the end of a meeting of the Permanent Commission for the Prevention, Monitoring and Follow-up of the Effects of Drought (CPPMAES).
