  • UPPER TRINITY ENACTS STAGE ONE DROUGHT WATERING RESTRICTIONS

    CORINTH, TX, July 1, 2022- As excessive heat continues, Upper Trinity Regional Water District (UTRWD) implemented Stage 1 of their Drought Contingency Plans due to the above average temperatures and high-water demand.

    “Although Upper Trinity’s local water supply reservoirs (Lewisville, Ray Roberts and Chapman lakes) are relatively full, water levels are beginning to drop. The unusual high water demand, particularly for outdoor watering, is approaching levels that may affect Upper Trinity’s capacity to deliver water to all Customers,” said Larry N. Patterson, Executive Director of Upper Trinity Regional Water District. “By initiating Stage 1, Upper Trinity’s goal is to achieve a 5% reduction in water use throughout the summer.”
