According to John Allen, General Manager of Brown County Water Improvement District, Brown County does not have a water crisis at this time.
Oncor did shut off power yesterday to the water treatment plant in Brownwood, Allen said. The plant provides water for the City of Brownwood, City of Early, City of Bangs, City of Santa Anna, Brookesmith Special Utility District, Zephyr Water Supply and parts of the Coleman County Special Utility District.
“We got low on the tanks on the hill, items froze, but we got power back about 10:30 pm Monday night,” Allen said. While the water district isn’t in a water crisis, the City of Bangs had pump station issues but, according to Allen, had water service again this morning. Bangs is under a Boil Water Notice until further notice.
