Drought Information
MUD 10 will be reviewing its DCP in the following months to make any additional changes to align with LCRA’s new rules. One of the changes is that Stage III will continue until such time as the combined storage in Lake Buchanan and Lake Travis reaches at least 1,100,000 acre-feet of water. At this time, the combined storage in these lakes is less than 845,000 acre-feet and without significant additional rainfall in the watersheds of these lakes the combined storage will continue to fall. If the combined levels continue to fall, the potential of NO outside watering may occur.
For now, under Stage III:
- Irrigating is allowed once-per-week, on your designated watering day and during the hours of midnight to 10am and from 7pm to midnight.
- Water variances may be granted between October and May. Customers will need to complete a water variance application before installing the new sod.
