Don't be a water waster Door hanger
Did you know? LCRA has restrictions about wasting water. If you are an LCRA water utilities customer you may be charged a minimum of $200 on your monthly water bill for misusing water.

To help prevent that, LCRA field employees may leave informational materials on the doors of homes where they spot leaks, improper watering and other water-wasting activities. Don't be a water waster! For more information call LCRA Customer Service at 1-877-718-4396.
