Emergency water use restrictions implemented by Austin Water on February 20, 2021, will be lifted on Wednesday, February 24, 2021 at 8 a.m. The emergency restrictions, urging customers to limit water use to basic needs, were put in place to help the distribution system quickly deliver excess water to Austin’s reservoirs and improve overall system pressure. After a monitoring period, and with an excess of 120 million gallons in reserves, it has been determined that Austin Water’s system has safely entered into a healthy range – allowing for lifting of emergency water restrictions.
