For Residents & HOAs
The NFBWA is your local partner in water protection.
Protecting Your Community
The North Fort Bend Water Authority "NFBWA" was created by the Texas Legislature in 2005 to find sustainable water sources for residents. In 16 years, we have created a strategy that will reduce groundwater use by 60%, keep the northern parts of Fort Bend County’s water flowing, and hold back the dangers of subsidence, all while maintaining our groundwater reserves for future generations.
We also work to educate and collaborate within the local community. Thanks to years of hard work, the NFBWA is the go-to source for local information regarding water, irrigation, and conservation.
