City of Kyle asked to save water after dam failure

City of Kyle asked to save water after dam failure

The city of Kyle Public Works Department received notification from the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority – (GBRA), that one of its water suppliers was requesting customers exercise conservation effort and to stop any unnecessary water usage, including outdoor watering, car washing, pool refilling until further notice. The plea came on the heels of an issue at Lake Dunlap, following a partial dam failure, Tuesday. 

“The City of Kyle sources its water from multiple places and we’re being told by conserving now we’re doing the GBRA a favor by giving them time to make repairs,” said Travis Mitchell, Kyle Mayor. “But the City of Kyle is in good shape.”

Mitchell said the reason was because the city sources about half of its water from two aquifers – the Edwards and Trinity.
