The city council of Užice has implemented strict measures to regulate water usage due to increased consumption and misuse of drinking water for non-purposes such as watering gardens, filling private reservoirs, and agricultural use. The decree warns citizens that unauthorized use of drinking water could lead to serious disruptions in water supply and outlines legal consequences under existing laws. The local water utility and rural water system managers are also tasked with taking necessary actions if infrastructure risks arise.
