Nearly 20 Texas Towns Could Run Out of Water in 90 Days

As Texas continues to run out of water, small towns throughout the state could run out of drinkable water in as little as 90 days.

 

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality monitors cities and other water-distributing entities and gives weekly reports on water shortages and which residents are under mandatory water restrictions.

 

For the week of May 14, there are 11 public water systems that could run out of water in 45 days, with a total of 32 that could run out in 90.
