The City of San Marcos will reenter Stage 1 drought restrictions beginning Sunday at noon.
The city said it enters Stage 1 drought restrictions when the 10-day average Edwards Aquifer index well level falls below 660 feet above mean sea level. The 10-day average aquifer level was at 658.9 feet and the daily reading was 658.2 feet on Tuesday, the city said.
“We ended 2020 well below average annual rainfall and are already several inches below average rainfall for this year.” Director of Public Services Tom Taggart said. “These dry conditions are expected to continue through the summer so it’s very important that we do everything we can to conserve our precious water resources.”
