WATER & WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITIES

Water

Bilma PUD provides water and wastewater service to nearly 1,800 customers, consisting mostly single family residences. The District’s water is supplied primarily by North Harris County Regional Water Authority (NHCRWA), which is supplied to the District at Water Plant #1. Water Plant #2 has a well that is capable of producing 1,500 gpm (gallons per minute).

Water delivered to Water Plant #1 by the NHCRWA is disinfected with chloramines, which the operator monitors and can adjust residual levels to ensure proper water quality. Water plant #2 produces water from it’s well and is also disinfected with chloramines. The operator tests disinfection residuals on a daily basis to maintain TCEQ standards for proper water quality.

District Facilities:

Wastewater

All of the wastewater from the residents and businesses is discharged into the sanitary sewer collection system; which then flows by gravity and pumps to the wastewater treatment plant. The Wastewater Treatment Plant is located at 16934 T C Jester Blvd., Spring, TX 77379. Currently this facility is treating about 350,000 gallons per day, with the capacity to treat 500,000 gallons per day. Once treated, the plant effluent is disinfected and discharge into the county drainage ditch adjacent to the facility. The quality of the discharged water is monitored on a daily basis, and must meet criteria established by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).

WATER CONSERVATION

Water Conservation

Bilma Public Utility District recognizes the value and benefits or conserving, developing, protecting and using water resources. As such, Bilma has drought contingency plans in place and Bilma routinely sends water conservation materials to residents. You can find our drought contingency plans on the Resources page.

For additional information about water conservation in the Houston region and in Texas, and to find ways you can conserve water and reduce your water costs, please visit the following sites.

SMART WATER METERS

Earlier this year, the Bilma PUD Board approved the replacement of all water meters in the District with new electronic smart water meters. Smart meters will allow customers to monitor their daily water consumption through the Eye On Water website and mobile app. These resources may help customers detect water leaks and will educate customers on how much water they actually use for irrigation and other activities such as filling your swimming pool.

The District’s Operator began replacing meters in July 2023. Replacement of all meters in the District should be complete by the end of 2023.

What to expect?

  • Customers should receive a door tag shortly before their meter is replaced. At this time, there are no further steps customers need to take for the physical replacement of their meter.

How do I use the Eye on Water App?

  • Once all meters in the District are replaced, the District will provide instructions on how to create an Eye On Water account which will be linked directly to your water account. The Eye On Water website/mobile app has features that allow customers to view their daily water usage and set up automated leak detection alerts.

To learn more about Eye On Water’s features, please watch the video below:

Customers are encouraged to sign up for mobile alerts from the District here to receive the most up to date information on the smart water meters and other District news!
