馃毃 Marlin Water Update: What鈥檚 Causing the Pressure Drops 馃毃 1-28-2026

I spoke directly with City Manager Jason Creasy and want to share a clear update with the citizens of Marlin.

Right now, the water plant is producing about 800 gallons per minute, which is half of normal capacity. When the plant鈥檚 holding tank (the clear well) runs low, the city must pause pumping water into town to allow it to refill. That process is what鈥檚 causing pressure drops and temporary outages.

The system really needs around 1,200 gallons per minute to stay stable, but at the moment it鈥檚 operating with very little room for error.

*Until production increases, citizens will experience a loss of water pressure or no water at all in intervals.

Water Bills Went Up, But the Water Still Goes Off. Here鈥檚 the Question Marlin Is Asking.

Today, I asked Mayor Byrd a question that many citizens have been wrestling with:
How do we reconcile a 5% water rate increase when residents are still experiencing little to no water due to ongoing issues at the treatment plant?

However, for residents, the frustration is real. When bills increase, expectations rise too. And when water service is inconsistent, especially during emergencies, it feels like people are paying more for something they can鈥檛 fully rely on.

This isn鈥檛 about blame.
It鈥檚 about accountability, transparency, and trust.

Mayor of Marlin Files Declaration of Disaster

The City of Marlin is currently facing a serious water emergency that disrupted operations at the city鈥檚 water treatment plant.

According to Mayor Byrd, the plant was operating normally until water pressure suddenly dropped due to freezing conditions. Frozen meters, extremely cold surface water, and dense water clogging the plant鈥檚 clarifier and filtration systems prevented the facility from producing enough water to meet citywide demand.

The issue is plant-related, not the result of active water leaks.

At present, the city is producing approximately 800 gallons per minute, which is less than half of what is needed to supply the entire community. No definitive timeline has been established for full restoration.

Mayor Byrd stated that the city has contacted every available state agency and is working closely with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. She stated that a formal disaster declaration has been submitted to the Governor of Texas requesting emergency assistance, especially since Falls County was not included in the state鈥檚 earlier weather-related emergency declaration.

Water Service & Water Plant Update (01/27/26)

The City of Marlin Water Treatment Plant is currently experiencing operational issues. The plant is actively producing water; however, production volume is half of what it normally is. This is due to issues affecting the filtration and electronic communications systems at the plant. These issues have been exacerbated by the hard freeze, which has increased the density of the water being treated and pushed into town. Our staff is working tirelessly to address these issues and identify solutions that will allow us to increase water production. Most customers will experience significant pressure reductions or outages as a result of the aforementioned issues at the water plant. Unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to provide a definitive timeline for full pressure restoration. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. We will post another update at 12:45 P.M.

Actualizaci贸n del servicio de agua y la planta potabilizadora (27/01/26)

La planta potabilizadora de la ciudad de Marlin est谩 experimentando problemas operativos. La planta est谩 produciendo agua, pero el volumen de producci贸n es la mitad del habitual. Esto se debe a problemas que afectan los sistemas de filtraci贸n y comunicaci贸n electr贸nica de la planta. Estos problemas se han visto agravados por las bajas temperaturas, que han aumentado la densidad del agua que se trata y se distribuye a la ciudad. Nuestro personal est谩 trabajando incansablemente para solucionar estos problemas e identificar soluciones que nos permitan aumentar la producci贸n de agua. La mayor铆a de los usuarios experimentar谩n reducciones significativas en la presi贸n del agua o cortes en el suministro debido a los problemas mencionados en la planta potabilizadora. Lamentablemente, en este momento no podemos proporcionar una fecha estimada para el restablecimiento completo del servicio. Pedimos disculpas por los inconvenientes que esto pueda causar. Publicaremos otra actualizaci贸n a las 12:45 p. m.
