Every time you flush, you’re making a choice that impacts your home, your community, and the environment. With today being National Toilet Paper Day (August 26th), it’s crucial to remember that only toilet paper should go down the drain. Flushing anything else, like wipes, can lead to costly plumbing problems, environmental damage, and higher utility bills.
Toilet paper is the only paper product engineered to be compatible with the sewer system. Wipes, including those marked as “flushable”, cause significant issues to plumbing and infrastructure.
A 2019 study examined over 100 different kinds of “flushable” wipes, and found that none of these products broke down enough to safely pass through home plumbing and public sewers, without risking clogs or damage.
The National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) conservatively estimates that wipes cause about $25 million dollars in damage and maintenance costs each year in Texas alone. These costs can be passed along to the consumer in the form of higher water bills.
In honor of National Toilet Paper Day, do yourself and your plumbing a favor by only flushing toilet paper. Together, we can reduce costs, prevent clogs, and keep our water systems flowing smoothly.

August is National Water Quality Month, making it a perfect time to review your district’s most recent Water Quality Report (also known as Consumer Confidence Report / CCR), which can be found here and on the Public Documents page. This is also an ideal time to revisit your household water practices and how they can be affecting your water quality.
Imagine life without easy access to clean water: no pools, clean lakes, or rivers for recreation, no long showers, no drinking water from the tap, and no running water at home. Our lives would be completely different, and not for the better.
National Water Quality Month reminds us of the importance of water sources for humans and ecosystems and highlights how human practices can harm these vital resources.
What causes poor water quality?
- Dumping toxic chemicals
- Agricultural runoff
- Leakage of untreated waste
- Products and chemicals used at home
- Bleach
- Ammonia
- Pesticides / Fertilizers
- Automotive fluids
While your Municipal district closely monitors its water infrastructure to ensure that residents are receiving high quality water, there are also quite a few things you can do at home to maintain your water quality.
What can your household do to improve and maintain your water quality?
- Opt for eco-friendly cleaning products, that do not contain any of the harmful chemicals listed above
- Follow proper disposal practices
- Reduce fertilization
- Attend public hearings on water quality standards
- After a big storm, clean the debris from your storm drains and curbs to prevent it from entering our waterways
- Participate in programs that monitor local rivers, lakes, and other water sources.
- Dispose of medications properly (not down the sink or toilet)
