Option 2
If you have chosen option 2, you must prepare a Water Conservation Plan acceptable to your water authority. In order to be approved, the Water
Conservation Plan will need to demonstrate that:
(a) the potable water consumption for each vehicle washed by the carwash has been assessed;
(b) during Stage 2 restrictions, the carwash will not use more than 100 litres of potable water for every vehicle washed;
(c) the use of water by the carwash has been, or will be, independently audited by an appropriately qualified and experienced auditor, applying auditing and
measuring techniques acceptable to your water authority;
(d) signs will be prominently displayed at the point of operation of your carwash, which inform customers and water patrols of the amount of potable water
used for every vehicle washed;
(e) there are appropriate means of ensuring that the commercial carwash continues:
(i) not to use more than 100 litres of potable water for every vehicle washed during Stage 2 restrictions; and
(ii) to improve the way in which it uses and manages water;
(f) the plan envisages an appropriate different level of use of potable water for every vehicle washed, for each washing technique used at the commercial
carwash (for example, self-service, automatic and hand-washing.)
If you want your commercial carwash to be able to operate during Stage 3 restrictions, your Water Conservation Plan will need to demonstrate the same
matters, but with a limit of 70 litres of potable water for every vehicle washed.
In options 1 and 2 your water authority has power to audit compliance of the carwash with the prevailing Stage of water restrictions at any time, without
giving prior notice.
