Water Main Repaired- August 11th, 2025

The line has been repaired and water has been restored. If you lost service during the repair, run your outside faucet that is located closest to the street until it runs clear. Should just take a couple of minutes or less. This will clean your lines and prevent sediment from clogging your water aerator on your sink and water softeners.

On Going Frontier Work In the District

Texas National Municipal Utility District

Operator’s Report – Oversight of Frontier Communications Fiber Optic Installation

Prepared by Aqua Management

Date: July 24, 2025

 

Overview

Frontier Communications has commenced installation of fiber optic transmission lines within the Texas National Subdivision. This activity presents a challenging environment for both the residents and the District’s infrastructure. Over the past week, I have taken a hands-on approach to manage this project and mitigate any negative impact.

I’ve initiated meetings with Frontier and their subcontractors and have communicated regularly with the Board to keep all parties informed. I’ve also enforced compliance with the “Texas National Subdivision Working Requirements”—a guideline I developed specifically in response to prior negative experiences with other fiber optic contractors.

To date, our engagement with Frontier has been constructive, with most front-end interactions proving productive. However, due to the inherently disruptive nature of this type of work, close monitoring and continued enforcement remain essential.

Summary of Implementation Plan

To ensure minimal disruption to District operations and the daily lives of residents, the following working requirements have been implemented:

Worksite and Operational Requirements

  1. Repairs: All damage repairs will be performed by the District and with the help of the District lawyer, billed directly to Frontier Communications.
  2. Work Hours Restrictions:
    – No work is permitted on weekends or holidays.
    – All work must be suspended from 5:00 PM to 8:00 AM daily.
    – On Fridays, work must cease by 3:00 PM.
  3. Infrastructure Protection:
    The District recently rehabilitated its entire sewer collection system and is fully aware of its condition. Aqua Management will assess and document any damage determined to have been caused during Frontier’s construction activities. Frontier will be held responsible for any such damages during and for 12 months following completion of their work.

Required Documentation from Frontier Communications

To facilitate compliance, accountability, and efficient communication, the following documents and contacts have been requested:

1. A copy of the Montgomery County construction permit.
2. Maps showing all current and planned construction areas within the District.
3. Primary and secondary contact information (phone and email) for Frontier personnel responsible for the work.
4. Foreman contact information (phone and email) for all onsite supervisors.
5. Official company and billing contact information, including mailing address, email, phone number, and accounts payable contact. This includes contact information for Frontier’s parent company, if applicable.
6. A meeting request with Frontier to discuss line lowering along the Maverick Drive drainage ditch.

Additional Measures

To safeguard the District’s wastewater infrastructure, we are initiating televising of individual sewer laterals to proactively identify any damage resulting from the fiber optic installation. This step is critical to ensure timely detection and documentation of any issues.

Current Damage Report

As of this meeting, the following incidents have occurred:

– Three (3) water line leaks have required repair.
– One (1) repair was performed on the 6” pond drainage line, which is being used to control pond and dip water levels.

A more detailed damage assessment and repair report will be presented once work progresses further and inspections continue.

Conclusion

While the nature of fiber optic infrastructure work is inherently disruptive, the measures we’ve implemented are intended to minimize the burden on the District and its residents. Our early-stage collaboration with Frontier has been positive, and we are committed to maintaining strict oversight to ensure compliance and infrastructure protection throughout the duration of this project.

Water System Malfunction

This morning, our community’s water system experienced a malfunction at the water plant. The system controls failed, causing the water wells to misread the levels in the ground storage tanks as empty. As a result, the wells continued pumping water, which led to the storage tanks overflowing into the pond and eventually filling the nearby dip area.

We want to assure you that the malfunction has been corrected, and the system controls are now functioning properly. Crews are actively pumping down both the pond and the dip area to restore normal levels.

Additionally, we’ve discovered that a drainage pipe leading from the pond was damaged by Frontier Communications. This damage is causing water to surface near Texas National Boulevard and run along the street. While this is not an emergency, we understand that it is inconvenient for nearby residents.

Water System Malfunction2025-07-19T12:55:34-05:00

Water System Inspection

There will be a crew of utility workers throughout the neighborhood the week of December 16. They will be looking for leaks in the water system so maybe up in yards in near houses.

Water Main Break

We are aware there is a water main break in Texas National. We have crews working to make repairs. Portions of Texas National may have low water pressure or intermittent water. We are working to resolve the issue and will update this site when repairs are complete.

When water is restored to full pressure, please run your outside water faucet closest to the street for 2 to 3 minutes to flush any dirt sediment through your lines.

Emergency Repairs To A Water Main

Texas National Residents: Please be aware that we will be making emergency repairs to a water leak in the district. Different parts of the district may experience intermittent outages throughout the day. If you experience an outage or low water pressure please run your outside water faucet for a few minutes to prevent sediment from entering your internal water lines when your service returns. If you have any questions, please call 936-443-7920. Thank you.

Winterize Your Home

With freezing temperatures right around the corner, it’s a good time to refresh ourselves on precautionary measures for drops in temperature and cold weather.

The Four P’s to Prepare your Home this Winter:

  • People
  • Pets
  • Pipes
  • Plants

People

  • Avoid going outside if it is not necessary. If you do, make sure you layer up from head to toe.
  • To keep you and your family safe, it is imperative your home is warm.
  • Make sure your heat is set to an appropriate temperature to make your entire home comfortable. Remember, heat rises so if you sleep upstairs, your room may be warmer than rooms downstairs.
  • If you use a fireplace, make sure you have a screen to catch any embers that might escape or a rolling log.
  • Never use your stove or oven to heat your home.
  • If you smell smoke or see flames, call 9-1-1 immediately.

Pets

  • While protecting your family, it is imperative to protect your pets as well.
  • Pets, like humans, are vulnerable to cold temperatures. If not taken care of properly, they can succumb to frostbite and even hypothermia.
  • If you have a dog that typically lives outdoors, consider letting them inside when temperatures drop to freezing. While their fur does help to keep them warm, it provides little help in freezing temperatures.
  • If you absolutely cannot bring them inside, make sure they have a warm shelter, plenty of food and fresh water so it does not freeze.
  • If your pet looks like it has any symptoms resembling frostbite or hypothermia, call your vet.

Pipes

  • Turn off the sprinkler system shut-off valve. Most residential devices have two shut-off valves. These are typically covered in blue on the valve handles and located before and after the sprinkler system backflow device. A diagram is shown below.
  • Release the water pressure from the bleeder valves. The bleeder valves are usually located under the top of the backflow device. If the water does not stop flowing you may have not shut the valves off completely.
  • Leave the smaller bleeder valve open, this will let any remaining water in the line expand without breaking the device. Insulate your backflow device. Most hardware/home services stores carry backflow insulation supplies.
  • Make sure to cover all your exposed pipes with a cover. You can also cover your pipes with towels, duct tape or another adhesive strip as long as they are wrapped tightly.
  • You can also open up the cabinets to let warm air circulate throughout your home. Just make sure any harmful chemicals are out of reach for children and pets.

Plants

  • When cold weather hits, it’s a good idea to bring in all of your outdoor plants.
  • If you can’t bring in the plant, cover it with a blanket to make sure they do not die.

Other Tips

  • Don’t forget to make sure your car is okay for the freezing temperatures. Check your anti-freeze and your batteries. Also make sure to check your tire pressure and the tread.
  • Speaking of cars, make sure when you are on the road that you are mindful parts of the roads may be frozen, particularly bridges. Do not speed and never slam on the brakes.
  • Make sure if you use a generator, it is outdoors. Do not use a generator inside, including in your garage.
