water in plano stage 2

Water Conservation Efforts Exceed Reduction Goals
In late August, the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) determined they will maintain Stage 2 water restrictions for a few more months. Our combined efforts with you to conserve water have worked well. According to Gerald Cosgrove, Public Works Director, we have saved 13.8 percent of water, which is 3.05 billion gallons less than the same period last year. This exceeds NTMWD’s regional 10 percent water use reduction goal.
Unfortunately, we won’t be free to water as we please until the raw water supply from Lake Texoma is fully restored. The Texoma supply has not been accessible since 2009 due to the infestation of invasive zebra mussels. NTWMD is accelerating a pipeline extension that will transport the Lake Texoma supply directly from the Texoma reservoir to the Wylie water treatment plant thereby protecting the environment.
Thank you for your commitment to help our community conserve water. Please continue to conserve by watering only twice a week on your designated days.
