The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and the Texas Water Company (TWC), Canyon Lake’s water provider, are working on the company’s water system and collecting water-quality samples to determine whether the water is safe to drink after floodwaters from the Guadalupe River entered Canyon Reservoir over the weekend.
TWC said it hopes to lift its boil-water notice by Wednesday, July 9 if conditions allow and test results meet state safety standards.
Guidelines
Customers should continue to boil all water for two minutes before drinking, cooking, brushing teeth and making ice.
Ice makers should be turned off. Any ice made on or after July 6 should be discarded.
