Residents in Caney are asked to continue to conserve as much water as possible as the Water Warning is still in effect. The recent rains have had almost no effect on the water levels in the Caney River, which serves as the city’s water source. Individuals should refrain from watering lawns and gardens, washing cars, and limiting clothes and dishwashing as much as possible. Businesses, especially those that use a high volume of water are asked to voluntarily restrict usage.

Keep in mind, that if the City were forced to raise the threat level to a Water Emergency, mandatory rationing would be imposed and it would be highly likely that several businesses would be shut down.
