Brazoria County MUD No. 2 is coordinating with Brazoria County to have storm debris picked up throughout the District. The County will be mobilizing soon. Please have your storm debris separated per the county’s instructions below:

Please be patient as the District coordinates this cleanup with Brazoria County. The County has started making sweeps and should reach the District very soon.

Please note that Stage 1 of the District’s Drought Contingency Plan is being rescinded, effective October 5, 2023.

The District would like to send their sincerest gratitude for the collective efforts made in helping reduce consumption.

Brazoria County MUD No. 2 has implemented Stage 1 of their Drought Contingency Plan and the District requests consumers follow these guidelines:

• Water customers are requested to voluntarily limit the irrigation of landscaped areas to Sundays and Thursdays for customers with a street address ending in an even number (0, 2, 4, 6, or 8), and Saturdays and Wednesdays for customers with a street address ending in an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7, or 9), and to irrigate landscapes only between the hours of midnight and 6:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. to midnight on designated water days.
• Water customers are requested to practice water conservation and to minimize or discontinue water use for non-essential purposes.

We’ve been informed by Inframark, our service provider, that a water main break has been reported. Field personnel are onsite isolating and assessing the issue.

An update will be posted once there is an ETA of repair.

Residents if you utilize cans that are not issued by Texas Pride, please ensure you label them clearly and appropriately, whether they are trash or recycle.

In the case of an electrical power outage, Brazoria County MUD #2 has onsite generators at Water Plant #1, Water Plant #2 and Water Plant #3. Brazoria County MUD #2 also has a portable generator that can be used at lift station #1 and lift station #2, if the need arises.

Having a back-up generator ensures limited service interruptions in case of an electrical power outage. The generators will start automatically and keep the pumps/motors running until normal power is restored.

Brazoria County MUD #2 takes a proactive approach to make sure the generators are always operational at a moment’s notice. This proactive approach includes the following preventive and predictive maintenance measures:

• Monthly facility generator load test (power outage simulation)
• Bi-Monthly fuel testing (testing fuel for bacteria, water, sediment and contamination)
• Quarterly maintenance (checking oil & coolant levels, testing the batteries)
• Semi-Annual maintenance (replacing oil, oil & fuel filters)
• Semi-Annual generator oil analysis (analyzing oil health, contamination and machine wear)
• Annual generator load bank testing (ensures that your generator will run when needed so that you can count on it producing power during any kind of emergency that may arise)
• Annual transfer switch maintenance (inspect all wiring, insulation, and connectors)

To ensure the generators have good/clean diesel at all times, Brazoria County MUD #2 has installed automatic fuel polishing systems on the generators at Water Plant #1, Water Plant #2 and Water Plant #3.

It is the goal of the District to always be prepared in case of any extreme weather events which might present themselves. If you have any questions regarding the District’s Emergency Preparedness, please don’t hesitate  to contact us.
