Due to the recent extreme heat conditions, all area public water supply and distribution systems
are under stress from heavy use and line breaks. Often these conditions lead to discolored water
within the distribution systems.
The Rankin Road West water distribution system is provided wholesale surface water from the
Central Harris County Regional Water Authority (CHCRWA) which is part of an even larger
regional water distribution system overseen by the City of Houston.
Both the CHCRWA and the City of Houston are working hard to address the discolored water
issue at the source. In the interim, the operator for Rankin Road West is diligently monitoring
the situation and taking measures to mitigate the impact to Rankin Road West residents. This
includes additional line flushing and water quality testing.
The Board of Directors for Rankin Road West is in constant contact with the Rankin Road West
operators and has been reassured by the operators that the water delivered by Rankin Road West
meets all applicable state and federal water quality standards. For more information, or to report
any water quality issues, please contact the District’s operator at (281) 895-8547.
