Liberty Hill water not expected to be impacted during Leander pipeline replacement
February 7, 2024
The City of Leander sent a press release earlier this week alerting the community that it will move from Phase 2 (once-a-week watering) to Phase 4 water conservation (no outside watering) on Feb. 12 to prepare for the Brushy Creek Regional Utility Authority (BCRUA) pipeline replacement, which will significantly reduce the City’s water treatment capacity.
On Feb. 28, BCRUA contractors will begin replacing about 1,400 feet of 36-inch underwater pipeline used to transport raw water from Lake Travis to the BCRUA water treatment plant, Leander's primary source for potable water. Contractors are expected to complete the project by the first week of April, according to the press release.
