ATTN: Prairie Grove Utilities Customers
Local temperatures dipped into the low teens overnight last night. As a result, some customers plumbing froze and have now thawed out. As part of that process, it is highly likely that plumbing has burst.
We are seeing high water demands at the water treatment plant, presumably from broken customer-side plumbing. We encourage you to please inspect your plumbing for water leaks.
Thank you so much for your cooperation and if you need additional assistance, please contact us.
The following customer notice is required by the TCEQ as a result of the non-compliances associated with Disinfection Byproducts Monitoring. This customer notice has also been mailed directly to every active water customer of the utility.
The Sunset Advisory Commission has been reviewing the mission and performance of the Angelina & Neches River Authority of Texas (ANRA) and welcomes public comments on ideas to improve its operations and services. The Texas Sunset Act requires the Sunset Commission to periodically review ANRA and recommend whether to change state law to improve the authority’s efficiency and effectiveness. The Legislature ultimately will decide whether to adopt Sunset’s statutory recommendations. The Sunset Commission also may adopt management directives for ANRA that do not require statutory change.
The Sunset process has three stages. First, Sunset staff will evaluate ANRA, seek public input, and issue a report recommending solutions to problems found. Second, the Sunset Commission will hold two public meetings: a hearing on the staff report and the authority, and a decision meeting to adopt recommendations to the Legislature based on the report and public comments. Third, the Legislature will convene in January 2025 and will consider Sunset’s statutory recommendations in a Sunset bill for ANRA.
The Sunset Staff Report may be viewed or downloaded below, but if a member of the public would like to make public comment in response to the Sunset Staff Report, please visit https://www.sunset.texas.gov/reviews-and-reports/agencies/angelina-and-neches-river-authority.
On Thursday, November 7, ANRA crews will repair a water leak at the corner of Buttermilk Road and FM 1818.
Customers may experience reduced water pressure while the repair is being made.
A boil water notice is not expected to be issued.
