Seems they moving water into lincolnshire then anglian water use it for 100,000.
Now flooding the rivers to shift water sounds bit drastic dangerious to me. The oter is it right to sell water like comodity like oil who will end up paying the 30 mill.
Bet anglian water already rubbing hands how much they make in this.

Tuesday, Severn Trent announced plans were being drawn up to supply more than 100,000 homes in the worst-hit areas. It aims to sell 30 million litres of water a day to Anglian Water, one of the seven companies that imposed a hosepipe ban at the beginning of April to help ease the shortage.
Pumping from boreholes, Severn Trent plans to flow water from sources beneath Birmingham into the River Tame, which joins the Trent.
'Extreme circumstances' The water will then flow to Gainsborough, Lincs, where Anglian Water will take it up.
