In 2022, the Harris County Fresh Water Supply District 1A received $38,225 from the Harris-Galveston Subsidence District’s Water Conservation Grant Program to fund a project that would reduce water loss via acoustic leak detection and waterline repair. Approximately 74,000 feet of water line were inspected and over 60 leaks were repaired ranging from service lines, main lines, valves, and fire hydrants. Repairs were completed in June 2023 saving approximately 3.5 MG of water that year. Additionally, 10 unauthorized connections were identified amounting to a water savings of 45,000 gallons per month.
Total Project Cost: $76,450
