滑铁卢区的供水由于过度使用而正在崩溃,迫使发展冻结,并需要紧急改善基础设施。 Waterloo Region's water supply is collapsing due to overuse, forcing a development freeze and requiring urgent infrastructure upgrades.

滑铁卢地区面临着日益严重的水危机,因为其人口接近100万,地下水供应紧张。 Waterloo Region faces a growing water crisis as its population nears one million, straining groundwater supplies. 一个关键含水层由于过度使用而急剧下降,导致曼海姆服务区的发展冻结。 A key aquifer has declined sharply due to overuse, prompting a development freeze in the Mannheim Service Area. 水处理失败和基础设施有限,无法与剑桥等剩余区域共享。 Water treatment failures and infrastructure limits prevent sharing with surplus areas like Cambridge. 养护工作已经不够充分,专家们说,到2038年,该区域每增加一秒能力需要1 593升,才能满足需求。 Conservation is no longer sufficient, and experts say the region needs 1,593 litres per second more capacity by 2038 to meet demand.
