NHCRWA Implements Stage 2 of the Drought Contingency Plan

The City of Houston (COH), the primary source of water for the North Harris County Regional Water Authority (Authority), has entered stage two of their Drought Contingency Plan, effective on August 27, 2023. The COH’s drought response calls for mandatory water conservations efforts to reduce water use, that will reduce the daily volume of water delivered. The Houston Public Works Release can be found under https://cityofhouston.news/stagetwodrought.

As required by the Authority’s Drought Contingency Plan, the Authority must enter Stage 2 of our Drought Contingency Plan, when the COH enters into Stage 2 water shortage of their Drought Contingency Plan. The Authority’s Drought Contingency Plan requires that any customer receiving water from the Authority or well owner whose well is included under the Authority’s Harris-Galveston Subsidence District aggregate water well permit:

  • Repair detectible water leaks within 72 hours of discovery;
  • Utilize water conservation measures such as displacement bags, low-flow shower heads and leak detection tablets;
  • Limit outdoor irrigation to the hours 7:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. of the following day on no more than two (2) days per week, in conformity with the following schedule (no watering on Mondays):
    • Sundays and Thursdays for single-family residential customers with even-numbered street addresses
    • Saturdays and Wednesdays for single-family residential customers with odd-numbered street addresses; and
    • Tuesdays and Fridays for all other customers

Compliance with the above requirements is mandatory.

Water Plant Expansion – Phase I Project

On behalf of Heatherloch Municipal Utility District (Heatherloch), we are providing this notice to inform Heatherloch’s customers and residents adjacent to the water plant site that Heatherloch has entered into a contract with Wharton-Smith, Inc. (the “Contractor”) to expand Heatherloch’s Water Plant No. 1. The main work items include replacement of an existing 125,000-gallon ground storage tank (GST) with a new 600,000-gallon concrete GST, associated plant piping improvements and replacement of the existing emergency natural gas generator with a large generator sized to run the entire water plant during power outages. The proposed improvements are required to replace aging infrastructure and to ensure adequate water plant capacity for the district.

We anticipate Wharton-Smith will begin moving on site in October 2022. Due to the extensive nature of the improvements, the construction contract is anticipated to take approximately 18 months. Working hours have been set for Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM. However, work on Saturday may be required, but will be limited.

If you have any questions concerning this notice or Heatherloch’s water plant expansion project, the District engineer’s and operator’s contact information is noted below:
