On May 6th, 2025, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality
required Brushy Creek WSC, PWS # 0010036, to issue a Boil Water Notice

ACR 404, 4520 E FM 321 thru 6310 E FM 321, all customers on ACR
402 and ACR 4021 that due to a line break and repair, which occurred recently
in the public water system, the water from this public water system was

the quality of the water distributed by this public water system used for drinking
water or human consumption purposes and has provided TCEQ with laboratory
test results that indicate that the water no longer requires boiling prior to use as
of May 8th, 2025.
