If you look at the law about water supply, you will find a part that used to be about diverting water from waterworks during a flood. This part of the law is called section 411, and it was part of the Local Government Act 1974. You can find more information about what happened to this law by looking at the Local Government Amendment Act 1992, which changed it on 1 July 1992.
