Our February edition of News Stream has all the resources you need to learn about our annual temporary change in disinfectant needed to maintain the regional system and year-round water quality. We’ve got information about our next water treatment plant tour for city officials and staff set for February 13 in Wylie.
You can learn how to help keep our waterways clean with our latest video about our Lavon Lake Watershed. You can watch it on our website and share with anyone interested in learning more.
We also have a list of events, recent news and more from our Member Cities and Customers.
