    Subject: Emergency Announcement for Broadcast


    The BAI have been asked by the Emergency Co-ordination Committee to issue the following announcement for stations to broadcast on all news bulletins today (Tues 12th ) and Tomorrow (Wed 13th ).




    The following is a public service announcement from your local authority via the Emergency Co-ordination Committee

    Due to critical water supply levels users of public water schemes are urged to conserve water as much as possible.

    Saving water at this time will prevent reduction in water pressure and water being cut off.

    [etc.]

    How do you get melted snow into reservoirs?

    To be fair it hasn't been raining alot lately and people have been leaving taps on for days.

    :rolleyes:


    Being in an area with water restrictions, there are no floods here but a shortage of treated water. Blamed on unusually high usage.

    Do you have any idea why there's no water left ? These sort of nonsensical statements are being thrown around all over the place.

    Guys I believe that the OP was wondering about the procedure of emergency announcements on radio and the water shortage was given as an example, seeing as this is the Radio forum, could things get back on topic please.
