About Us
Certain populations may face increased vulnerability to specific microbial contaminants like Cryptosporidium in municipal water. This includes infants, elderly individuals, and those with compromised immune systems such as people undergoing cancer chemotherapy, organ transplant recipients, individuals on steroid treatments, and those with HIV/AIDS or similar conditions. If you belong to these groups, please consult your healthcare provider regarding your water consumption habits. Additional guidance on reducing Cryptosporidium infection risk is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline: 1-800-426-4791.
Municipal water sources include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water flows across land surfaces or through underground formations, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals, potentially including radioactive materials, and may pick up substances from animal or human activities. Potential contaminants in source water before treatment include:
- Microbial contaminants (viruses, bacteria) from sewage treatment facilities, septic systems, agricultural operations, and wildlife
- Inorganic contaminants like salts and metals, either naturally occurring or from urban runoff, wastewater discharge, oil/gas production, mining, or farming
- Pesticides and herbicides from agriculture, urban runoff, and residential uses
- Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile compounds from industrial processes, petroleum production, gas stations, urban runoff, and septic systems
- Radioactive contaminants, either naturally occurring or resulting from oil/gas production and mining
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enforces regulations limiting certain contaminants in public water systems to ensure tap water safety. Similarly, FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water to provide equivalent public health protection.
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has evaluated our system and confirmed our water meets or exceeds all federal requirements. If your water meets these standards, there's no health advantage to purchasing bottled water or point-of-use filtration devices. Harris County Municipal Utility District No. 165 has earned the "Superior" water rating from the TCEQ.
Our municipal water comes from groundwater sources in the Chicot aquifer. The TCEQ's assessment indicates some of our sources may be vulnerable to certain contaminants. Our sampling requirements are based on this susceptibility and previous testing data. For more information on source water assessments and protection efforts, visit Texas Drinking Water Watch at http://dww2.Tceq.Texas.Gov/DWW/ or contact H2O Consulting at 281-861-7265.

Harris County MUD 165 Municipal Water Company and EPAHarris County MUD 165 Municipal Water Report Information
Harris County Municipal Utility District No. 165 is located in northwest Harris County, Texas, approximately 20 miles northwest of Houston's central business district near the intersection of Fry Road and FM 529. The District is bounded by the future West Road extension to the north, an HL&P easement and HC MUD No. 172 to the east, Fry Road to the west, and FM 529 to the south. The District falls entirely within the extra-territorial jurisdiction ("ETJ") of Houston.
Created by Order of the Texas Water Commission (now Texas Commission on Environmental Quality) on July 6, 1978, the District faced significant challenges in the late 1980s and early 1990s. During this period, taxable value plummeted from $26,490,000 in 1987 to just $11,198,950 in 1992. The District was forced to foreclose on substantial undeveloped land, residential construction halted, and bankruptcy became necessary. Home values declined dramatically, making property sales within the District extremely difficult.
In the mid-1990s, the Board of Directors developed a recovery strategy centered on selling foreclosed undeveloped lands to attract developers and exit bankruptcy. Their plan focused on annexing additional areas to distribute operating costs of existing water and sewer facilities across more residents, increase property values, and encourage higher-quality development. The Directors also prioritized creating more parks and green spaces for residents.
After emerging from bankruptcy in 1998, the District promoted quality development and expanded through annexations to share infrastructure costs across a larger area. These strategic moves allowed for tax rate reductions. Through these expansions, the District has grown from its original 441 acres to 2,729 acres, with property values increasing from $11,198,950 in 1992 to $868,434,182 in 2015, while the tax rate has decreased from $3.89 in 1989 to $1.20 in 2015.
