3/27/26 DCP UPDATE: Stage 2 Watering Restrictions effective immediately

On March 26th we received notice from the WTCPUA that their operations necessitated moving to Stage 2 Watering Restrictions effective April 1, 2026. Unfortunately, on the afternoon of Friday, March 27th, the WTCPUA revised their guidance, requiring all users move to Stage 2 Watering Schedule effective immediately because irrigation demand is currently very high and their system is still recovering from this week's outage.

Watering will therefore be on the one day per week schedule effective immediately. Please note that the watering schedule for Belterra differs from the WTCPUA watering schedule.

Stage 2 Water Restrictions are: Once a week watering - Watering must occur between 12:00 AM and 7:00 AM on the designated day. Hand watering restrictions are permitted from 6:00 AM to 10:00 AM on any day.

Please adjust irrigation systems accordingly.

Please refer to the WCID website for more information including the Water Conservation and Drought Contingency Plan Quick Reference Guide.

We apologize for the confusion and frustration experienced this week, but we must comply with the WTCPUA's revised guidance.

Boil Water Notice Rescinded
Thursday, March 26, 2026

On March 25, 2026, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality required West Travis County PUA, a provider of water for Hays County WCID 2 (PWS ID TX1050148), to issue a Boil Water Notice to inform customers, individuals, or employees that due to conditions which occurred recently in the public water system, the water from this public water system was required to be boiled prior to use for drinking water or human consumption purposes.

The public water system has taken the necessary corrective actions to restore the quality of the water distributed by this public water system used for drinking water or human consumption purposes and has provided TCEQ with laboratory test results that indicate that the water no longer requires boiling prior to use as of today, March 26, 2026.
