Water board regulations mean no hoses on the farm
 

So the waterboard (Northumbria) came around and advised that no hoses that could touch the ground are allowed on the farm due to a risk of contaminating the water supply. I wasn't there and yard manager does the minimum possible so now all taps have been adapted so that we no longer can attach a hose. Its a nightmare for cleaning horses now and are unable to cold hose. I know on another farm they have got around regulations by having one of the high booms for a hose- anyone know what they are called? I have had a search but not found them. Any other ideas - its very hard to get any thing done the easier/ cheaper the better.
