Fulshear Municipal Utility District No. 3A

Fulshear MUD 3A (Jordan Ranch) spent over $30,000 in 2023 performing certain maintenance on sanitary sewage facilities, which includes the wastewater treatment plant and lift station.

This maintenance was caused primarily by customers flushing items such as:

• Baby wipes
• Cleaning wipes
• Makeup wipes and facial pads
• Feminine hygiene products
• Bandages

These items do flush down the toilet but do not dissolve or dissipate enough to flow through the sanitary sewer system properly.  These items form ‘rag balls’ and clog up the sanitary systems pumps, screens, basins and other system equipment.

The Dollars spent on maintenance by your MUD are your Dollars.

The Board of Directors of Fulshear MUD 3A are asking you to do your part in controlling these maintenance costs.

PLEASE FLUSH ONLY HUMAN WASTE AND TOILET PAPER DOWN THE TOILET.
