MANGAHAO POWER PLANT.
SHORTAGE OF WATER. By Telegraph - Press Association. Wellington, June 11. Owing to the scanty rainfall the Mangahao power system is affected. The level of the water in the dam has been falling and a call has been made “on the Evans Bay city station and the Palmerston North station to assist at the heaviest periods. The big increase in consumption has brought the demand on Mangahao up to capacity. This will be relieved when the third dam is completed. A Public Works official states that there is no occasion for alarm. Assistance is only required during the peak loads.
