Brownsville Urges Water Conservation: Stage Two Restrictions Remain in Place

Brownsville faces a water shortage as Amistad Falcon Reservoir levels plummet, urging residents to take action and conserve water.

As the city of Brownsville faces a water shortage crisis, residents are being urged to adhere to stage two water restrictions to conserve this precious resource. The Amistad Falcon Reservoir, a crucial water source for the city, currently stands at a mere 22.2% of its normal conservation capacity, prompting officials to take action.

The Brownsville Public Utilities Board emphasizes the importance of minimizing water usage in everyday activities. Simple measures such as turning off the tap while brushing teeth, avoiding using water to store food, and opting for showers instead of baths can significantly contribute to conservation efforts.
