Bell-Milam-Falls WSC announces water management plan

Bell-Milam-Falls WSC has announced emergency water management will go into effect.

In a statement they said that due to extreme water usage during the past weeks, their system is unable to meet the demand of all water needs.  Therefore, under our Drought Contingency and Emergency Water Demand Management Plan on file with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, Stage 1 Mild Conditions allocation will begin on July 20 and will be in effect no later than Aug. 30 or until the situation improves.

Stage 1 allocation restricts your water use as follows: outside usage only between 6-8 a.m. and 9-11 p.m. except for animals.

The Board has authorized those penalties and measures contained in the Corporation’s tariff that may be levied against you and placed on your account(s) if you are found violating this allocation.  Subsequent violations may result in temporary termination of service.  If you feel you have good cause for a variance from this rationing program please contact us in writing at P O Box 150, Cameron, TX 76520. 

A complete copy of our approved Drought Contingency and Emergency Water Demand Management Plan is available for review on their website and at the business office.
