(3) Watering to all of these ovals will be resumed as soon as water restrictions are lifted
(4) There is ongoing monitoring and assessment of these grounds to ensure that they are only made available for hire if they are safe for use.
There has been ongoing consultation with ACTSPORT to keep the sporting community informed of any relevant decisions made as a result of water restrictions.
All winter sports were able to go ahead at these grounds as level 3 restrictions reverted to level 2 restrictions and maintenance to grounds was undertaken in March 2004
As cricket is the main summer sport on these grounds, regular meetings have been held with the Executive Director of the ACT Cricket Association to jointly develop strategies to deal with the possible loss of grounds for this coming season. Such options as playing junior games on grade grounds on Saturday mornings using a specially mown strip, as well as scheduling twilight competitions on weekdays, have been considered.
