Please be advised that effective November 15, 2022, the West Harris County Regional Water Authority (the “Authority”) withdrew implementation of Stage 1 of its Drought Contingency Plan. Stage 1 drought conditions have been lifted.

Voluntary Water Use Restrictions

Dear Customer:

Due to ongoing drought conditions, The West Harris County Regional Authority (WHCRWA) initiated Stage 1 water conservation measures. Because Harris County MUD 120 is located within the boundaries of the WHCRWA, we are required to initiate Stage 1 voluntary utility water conservation measures. The WHCRWA and Harris County MUD 120 may require mandatory water use restrictions if conditions worsen. Effective immediately, the following voluntary water use restrictions are in place:

Voluntary water use restrictions now in place:

  • Outdoor water use shall be voluntary between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. and between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. (midnight).
  • All outdoor water usage, including, but not limited to, lawn and garden watering, car washing, and window washing, shall be limited as follows:
    • District residents and other users of water within the district with even numbered addresses may use water outdoors on even number days (0, 2, 4, 6 or 8)
    • District residents and other users of water within the district with odd numbered addresses may use water outdoors on odd numbered days (1, 3, 5,7 or 9)
    • In the event no street address exists, only district residents and other users of water within the district living on the north and west side of a street may use water outdoors on even numbered days. District residents and other users of water within the district on the south and east side of a street may use water outdoors on odd numbered days.

The Board of Directors appreciates your cooperation and perseverance during this Conservation Condition. Once the Conservation Condition ends, we will notify you, and you may then return to normal usage. If conditions should worsen, it may be necessary to proceed to Stage 2, at which time you will be notified of the more stringent restrictions to ensure the availability of water in your community.

Smart Meters
