Dear Westwood Shores MUD Residents,
Water quality from the water wells at Water Plant 1 continues to be very poor, producing abnormally high concentration of Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S). At this time, we don’t know when these elevated levels of H2S will subside. Last week the operator placed a rush order for larger treatment equipment that can treat these very high concentrations of H2S more effectively. Unfortunately, Hurricane Milton has delayed delivery. A portion of the upgraded equipment arrived this afternoon and is currently being installed. We won’t know to what extent this intermediate step will help until it has had an opportunity to run for several hours/days.
The next planned Westwood Shores MUD update is scheduled for tomorrow October 16th.
Water Plant No. 2 (“WP2”) relies on Trinity Rural Water Supply Corporation (“TRW”) for supply. TRW issued another alert today stating their water plant will be undergoing repairs through Thursday, October 17th and that the plant will be offline while the repairs are actively being worked on. Westwood Shores Water Plant 2 will continue to remain offline and unavailable as an option for Westwood until TRW has completed their repairs and is able to supply Westwood with water. A decision to switch to WP2 will be considered at that time.
Please continue to report your water quality issues to Precision Utility at 281-456-9825 or service@precisionutility.biz.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding during this difficult time.
