Hosepipe bans imposed by suppliers including Yorkshire Water, Thames Water, South East Water and Southern Water will remain in place, while further restrictions are being considered for South East Water and Severn Trent unless weather conditions improve, the Environment Agency said Thursday after meeting with the UK’s National Drought Group.
