Especially for council members, there is a webinar on Thursday, October 2 about the drinking water supply in Brabant. The webinar addresses the possible consequences of code red for municipalities and specifically targets municipal council members. The province of North Brabant organizes the webinar together with Brabant Water and the municipalities of Bergen op Zoom and Tilburg.
The availability of sufficient drinking water is under pressure throughout West and Central Brabant. In West Brabant, there is even a code red. Due to population growth and economic developments, the demand for drinking water is increasing even further. A shortage of drinking water has consequences for everyone. What does code red mean for the drinking water supply in Brabant? During this webinar, we will discuss the current situation, possible consequences, and solutions.
