With dry conditions overtaking the Brazos River basin and throughout most of Texas, there is one option that can help offer some relief – rainwater harvesting. Even during times of drought, there is occasional rainfall, and saving this valuable resource for use later can help ensure a healthy lawn and garden.

Continuing dry conditions within the Brazos River basin have prompted BRA hydrologists to reinstate production of reservoir level projections to keep the public and water customers up-to-date on the potential for declining lake levels.

As long as the ground is not frozen, the winter months in Texas allow a great opportunity to plant trees or shrubs, adding value to your property over time.
