During this time of social distancing and self quarantine one thing still stands true, WATER still flows!

 

Residents need to know they will still see Inframark trucks and field personnel performing their daily tasks that are part of maintaining the collection and distribution systems.

 

The appropriate personal protective equipment will be used by personnel during these daily tasks. Also, we have asked them to keep the appropriate social distance (6 feet) if approached by a resident. “Presence of the COVID-19 virus has not been detected in drinking water supplies and based on current evidence the risk to water
supplies is low.”

According to the CDC, COVID-19 is mainly thought to spread between people who are in close contact with one another. EPA’s drinking water regulations require treatment at public water systems to remove or kill pathogens, including viruses.

The Annual Meeting scheduled for April 16th has been postponed until further notice. 

Please note that celebratory gunfire is illegal and can lead to prison time. Bullets come down at very fast speeds causing serious damage or injury. On Dec. 31, 2017 alone, Houston Police responded to at least 1,500 calls related to celebratory gunfire, according to a KPRC report. This New Year’s, and every day of the year, practice responsible firearm use and obey the law - don’t discharge a firearm in celebratory gunfire. If you hear gunshots at any time, call 911 immediately.
