オーストラリアのセントラル・ダーリン郡が、水の残りが少なくなった集落ホワイト・クリフスに、最も厳しい第三段階の節水制限をかけた。

On 28 May 2025 the Central Darling Shire, in New South Wales, Australia, decided to place stage-three water restrictions on the settlement of White Cliffs, because the water supply had run low.

The shire's elected council has been dismissed, and the decision was taken by a single administrator, Bob Stewart. The council also asked the general manager to bring forward a report on the water arrangements for another settlement, Tilpa.

White Cliffs, a former opal-mining field, is a remote inland place of fewer than two hundred people, about 270 kilometres north-north-east of Broken Hill.
