October brought cooler weather, fall festivities and plenty of opportunities for New Braunfels Utilities (NBU) employees to get out and spend time with our neighbors. 

At NBU, our commitment to the community extends beyond providing essential electric, water and wastewater services. It also means showing up for local traditions, lending a hand and supporting the people who make New Braunfels home. 

New Braunfels Utilities has lifted the boil water notice for the Copper Ridge subdivision after laboratory testing confirmed the water is safe to consume. Water service has also been fully restored to approximately 600 customers affected by the 16-inch water main break.

New Braunfels Utilities (NBU) is planning a $126 million expansion of the Gruene Water Reclamation Facility, with $81 million budgeted over the next five years. The project will nearly double the facility’s wastewater treatment capacity from 2.5 million gallons per day (MGD) to 4.9 MGD, helping NBU meet the needs of a growing community while continuing to provide reliable wastewater service to existing customers.

The New Braunfels City Council approved updates to the City’s Drought Contingency Plan on Monday, Sept. 28.
