Dear Member,
As the summer heat continues and rain has been scarce, Lake Palo Pinto Area Water Supply Corporation will be implementing STAGE 1 Drought Restrictions effective July 15, 2022. The complete Drought Contingency Plan can be found on our website www.lakepalopintoareawsc.com
Stage I Response -- Mild Water Shortage Conditions
- Target: Maintain total water use by system users to less than 150,000 gallons per day.
- Best Management Practices for Supply Management: LPPAWSC will reduce or discontinue flushing of water mains and will promote the use of alternative water sources.
- Water Use Restrictions for Reducing Demand: Water customers are requested to voluntarily limit the irrigation of landscaped areas to Sundays and Thursdays for customers with account numbers ending in an even number (0, 2, 4, 6 or 8), and Saturdays and Wednesdays for customers with account numbers ending in an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7 or 9), and to irrigate landscapes only between the hours of midnight and 10:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. to midnight on designated watering days.
- All operations of LPPAWSC shall adhere to water use restrictions prescribed for Stage II of the Plan.
- Water customers are requested to practice water conservation and to minimize or discontinue water use for non-essential purposes.
These restrictions will be in effect until further notice. Please join our alert system on our website to receive notifications sooner. Thank you for helping to conserve water!
