Boil Water Notice Rescinded
For Stephens Regional Special Utility District customers located on State Park Road 33, beginning at the County Road 110 Intersection, extending Northeast.
Due to a loss of pressure as a result of a line break on May 8, 2025, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), required Stephens Regional SUD, PWS 2150007 to issue a Boil Water Notice to inform customers, individuals, or employees that due to conditions which occurred recently in the public water system, the water from this public water system was required to be boiled prior to use for drinking water or human consumption purposes.
The public water system has taken the necessary corrective actions to restore the quality of the water distributed by this public water system used for drinking water or human consumption purposes and has provided TCEQ with laboratory test results that indicate that the water no longer requires boiling prior to use as of May 11, 2025.

Public Notice to Boil Water
For Stephens Regional Special Utility District customers located on FM 2231, beginning at the Highway 183 South intersection, extending west 1 mile. Includes Private Road 2231-1.
Due to a loss of pressure caused by a line break on May 11, 2025 the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has required our water system, PWS 2150007, Stephens Regional Special Utility District, to notify customers of the need to boil their water prior to consumption (e.g., washing hands/face, brushing teeth, drinking, etc.). Children, seniors, and persons with weakened immune systems are particularly vulnerable to harmful bacteria, and all customers should follow these directions.
To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking and making ice should be boiled and cooled prior to use. The water should be brought to a vigorous, rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes.
In lieu of boiling, you may purchase bottled water or obtain water from some other suitable source for drinking water or human consumption purposes.
Once the boil water notice is no longer in effect, the public water system officials will notify customers that the water is safe for drinking water or human consumption purposes.
Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.
Instructions to discontinue boiling will be issued in the same manner as this notice.
If you have any questions concerning this matter you may contact, the District’s office at 254-559-6180 during business hours or Kelvin Nickell, Water Treatment Plant Operator at 254-488-2333.
