I'd be fascinated to know how they would police that!
By putting a lock on the pumps maybe?

Gardener was in today cutting the long grass in the back field. He noticed the 8 lengths of ¾" water pipe and ½" electric conduit. "I'll do that for you", he says. "We have already organised the sparks - how much to dig the trench, today, and install the pipe later after the sparks and backfill the trench?" "฿ 500.00" he says.
It's not worth me getting out of bed!
That pond is very much the size of our new pond at CRU. Looks to be about 15 meters deep and the muck as you say was used to build up the sides and if you look closer the extra muck has been spreed out just to the left of the pond.. They say two more to go in that area.
He's just informed me that the price is excluding an H&S survey, analysis and procedure. That will be ฿ 20,000.00 on top!
My work used to involve H&S, and I worked very closely with the H&S Executive, 40 years ago. Then, what they did was very reasonable...not the H&S nonsense that is required today.
And what is the reason for digging ponds in the reservoir? I can't see any practical use or purpose for these ponds.

At his moment you're water for the reservoir is coming from the rain you just had and the gravel quarry. Officials know that the water you see in the reservoir is not going to last that long and the chances of rain are a crap shoot at best. The quarry water from what I get may last for 2 maybe 3 more months. The quarry's were excavated to about 20 meters in depth will below the ground water table and that is what you're getting from the quarry ground water. These quarries will recharge but it will take sometime. The bottom of your reservoir is not into the ground water as you saw photos of a dried up bed just a couple weeks back. NOW the pond in that new photo along with at least two more have and are being dug down about 20 meters into the ground water table and hopefully in a few weeks we will see this and the ponds with water. These ponds were located for two main reason in that area, close proximity to the pump house and AND it was dry ground that could be worked. You can not dig a pond as such when the ground is covered in water. I look for a lot more of these ponds being dug about the reservoir. The reservoir has to be dug out and at this time it is not being done for what ever reason.NOW the pond in that new photo along with at least two more have and are being dug down about 20 meters into the ground water table and hopefully in a few weeks we will see this and the ponds with water.
They do a step and ramp then on the way out they dig it out.. This how our new pond was dug and it is about 18 meters deep. Btw same size earth evacuator.Those diggers don't look capable of digging 20 metre depth.
Aside of private's use bores the the Surin Hospital bores to my knowledge are 6 inch bores that go down 150 meters and by reports I saw they have 14 all on the hospital property. The number of bores of this size to supply a city of 50k would be astronomical. The equipment that has been used and shown is not up to snuff for such a task. These would have to be a 20 inch bore and this equipment I have seen in the Thai oil patch.
44 has already intimated that He, they or who ever is going to fix the shallow Huay Saneg. But who can fix the shallow politicians of Surin? Their depths caused this problem. The public should not forget. But they will when the next bone gets thrown to the rabid dogs to keep them at bay as they tend to do. 44 is going to toss that bone. I wonder what it will be.
