Freezing conditions are expected this Thursday evening with low temperatures near below freezing. Be sure to protect your pipes!
Why Pipe Freezing is a Problem – Water expands as it freezes and pipes that freeze most frequently are those that are exposed to severe cold, like outdoor hose bibs, swimming pool supply lines, water sprinkler lines, and water supply pipes in unheated interior areas like attics, garages or kitchen cabinets. Pipes that run against exterior walls that have little or no insulation are also subject to freezing.
If you suspect that the plumbing may be frozen at the point where the pipe goes under the house or in the attic, it is safest to call a plumber as it may be cracked and burst when thawed.
In the event of an emergency, please contact our operator, Municipal District Services, at 281-290-6500. Water running in the street or buckled pavement are signs of a water main break and should be reported immediately.
Effective Monday, October 9, 2023, the City is rescinding all Drought Contingency Plan (DCP) water conservation measures.
This includes rescinding both mandatory and voluntary water conservation measures that were in effect since August 28, 2023.
The recent rainfall and lower temperatures have helped in reducing domestic water demands, and hence these DCP measures are no longer necessary.
Fort Bend County MUD 47 (the District) and Missouri City Public Works would like to thank the residents, businesses, and various utility entities for their cooperation in implementing the water conservation measures.
