Tighter water restrictions to spare Hsinchu for now
Taichung and Miaoli are racing to secure alternative water sources ahead of tighter water restrictions that take effect next month. Starting April 6, water will be cut off twice a week for most users, and science parks will need to reduce usage even further. At Taichung’s Central Taiwan Science Park, manufacturers like TSMC plan to make use of groundwater pumped from neighboring land. Officials say that for now, Hsinchu will be spared the same water restrictions, as the region is supplied by a new pipe connected to Taoyuan’s water supply.
