First the good news. Recent rains have relived drought conditions throughout Deep South Texas! However, levels at our reservoirs remain dire.

Both Falcon and Amistad Lakes are WELL below acceptable levels. Falcon is at 15.5 percent full, while Amistad is at just 26.8 percent of capacity. Most municipalities in the area, including San Benito, base drought contingency plans upon reservoir levels. With that said, PLEASE DO YOUR PART TO CONSERVE WATER as Stage 2 Mandatory Water Conservation Restrictions may be forthcoming.
