BELL COUNTY, Texas (KXXV) — The Bell County Water Control and Improvement District #1 (WCID 1) announced Thursday that two major infrastructure projects aimed at improving water reliability and resiliency are nearing completion.
Critical tie-ins for the projects have been finalized, with disinfection and line filling beginning at 2 p.m. While these final steps are underway, WCID 1 recommends that current drought-related water restrictions remain in place until midnight. Full water service is expected to resume at 12:01 a.m.
Officials credited the cooperation of residents and businesses in curbing water usage over the past four days—often at personal and financial cost—with helping to avoid boil water notices during construction.
