NWHCMUD 6 Revises The Drought Contingency Plan From Stage 2 (Mandatory) to Stage 1 (Voluntary)

North Harris County Regional Water Authority (NHCRWA), which provides water for Northwest Harris County (NWHC) MUD 6, is notifying the districts they serve to change their Drought Contingency Plan from Stage 2 to Stage 1 (Voluntary).  This will go into effect on October 10, 2023, and continue until notice is provided that the implementation has been lifted or modified.

  • 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.
  • Outdoor irrigation is limited to the hours between 7:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m., 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 address.
    • Saturdays and Wednesdays for single-family residential customers with odd numbered street addresses.

Thank you for your compliance with the recent mandatory water rationing.

Don’t Flush the “Flushables!”

Dear NWHCMUD 6 Residents and Businesses,

Please do not flush moist/wet wipes and feminine hygiene products down your toilet.

After these items are flushed, they cause problems at various points on their way to the sewer processing plant by clogging lift pumps and can also trigger costly sewer backups.

In addition to affecting the District’s main sewer system, disposing of cooking grease in the kitchen drain causes eventual build-up or blockage within the homeowner’s sewer system.

We thank everyone for their cooperation.

Northwest Harris County MUD #6 Board of Directors
