For Residents & HOAs
The NFBWA is your local partner for smart water use and reliable water delivery.
Clean Drinking Water for Sustainable Communities
The Texas Legislature created the North Fort Bend Water Authority (NFBWA) in 2005. Our mandate was to reduce the region’s reliance on groundwater (water pumped from underground).
What’s wrong with groundwater? Nothing! However, the ground sinks if you pump too much in our area of Texas. This is called subsidence. It damages homes and infrastructure, and it makes communities more vulnerable to floods and hurricanes. Since 2005, our infrastructure projects have reduced groundwater usage by almost 60%.
We also help residents, community associations, and homeowner associations reduce water use with resources for smarter irrigation, conservation tips, and education. This saves money, protects communities, and helps our fast-growing region thrive.
