Freezing Weather Notification

Winter weather and freezing temperatures are expected this week across Texas. The National Weather Service is forecasting widespread freezing temperatures on Friday and Saturday mornings. Residents should closely monitor media and the National Weather Service for updates to the forecast. We wanted to assure you that the teams at Inframark are monitoring and working diligently in preparation for a freezing weather event to safeguard your facilities. It is also important that you take action as well in protecting the “Four P’s”: People, pets, pipes and plants.

People

  • Keep warm, stay inside if possible.
  • If you need to go out, dress in layers and wear hats, gloves and an appropriate coat.
  • Avoid overexertion, as cold weather puts added strain on your body.

Pets

  • Bring pets inside, and move other animals or livestock to sheltered areas.
  • Keep adequate food and water available.

Pipes

  • Disconnect outdoor hoses, drain and store in protected area.
  • Wrap exposed faucets and pipes – including those outside the house or in unheated crawl spaces, attics, garages and other areas.

Plants

  • Bring potted plants inside or store in garage near interior wall to provide extra warmth and protection from wind.
  • For cold-sensitive outdoor plants, put down extra mulch and consider covering with a cloth fabric of some kind to shield the plants from wind and frost.

If you have an irrigation system, turn off the water to the system at your backflow preventer and then drain the system so your irrigation pipes and sprinkler heads are not damaged. As always, if you see any leaks, please report them immediately to Inframark’s 24/7 Emergency Number – (281) 398-8211.

Stay safe and stay warm.

Drought Contingency Remains in Effect

Dear Remington MUD Residents,

Despite the sporadic rain we’ve received over the past few weeks, our region is remains in a drought. As today is August 1st, the beginning of the driest month of the year, we ask that you continue your efforts to conserve water.

Please limit your outdoor water usage to the following:

  • Sundays and Thursdays for even numbered addresses
  • Saturdays and Wednesdays for odd numbered addresses.

Please limit this outdoor consumption to the hours of 8:00 PM to 6:00 AM.

Every drop counts, and remaining mindful with your water consumption, especially during peak consumption periods (4 am to 8 am and 4 pm to 8 pm), makes a big impact on our community’s water system.

If you see a water leak anywhere in our subdivision please report it immediately by calling (832) 398-8211 or by writing in to MUDCustomerService@Inframark.com.

Voluntary Water Use Restrictions

Dear Residents,

The West Harris County Regional Water Authority (WHCRWA) has requested that all Municipal Utility Districts within its boundaries voluntarily reduce their water usage.

In the event of Mild Drought Conditions, we’re asking residents and other users to voluntarily reduce outdoor water usage as follows:

  • Sundays and Thursdays for even numbered addresses
  • Saturdays and Wednesdays for odd numbered addresses

To help reduce the strain on our water system, please limit your outdoor usage to between the hours of 8 p.m. and 6 a.m.

While we have had small bouts of rain over the past few days, the overall drought continues to strain our water system and those other systems which help supply us. We ask that you help reduce this stress on our community’s water system by remaining mindful, especially during peak consumption periods (4 a.m. to 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.). Please ensure that your irrigation systems are leak free.

If you see a water leak anywhere in our subdivision please report it immediately by calling (832) 398-8211 or by writing in to MUDCustomerService@Inframark.com.

Collection and Disposal of Recyclable Material

Dear Residents of Remington MUD 1 – please read the following message from Best Trash:

We hope you and your families had a good Thanksgiving.

Best Trash has received several inquiries regarding the collection and disposal of recyclable material. Please note that Best Trash will always have a three person recycle crew. The recycle crew consists of a driver and two people in the back to collect the contents of the recycle cart from the curb. The recyclable material is dumped into a rear-load truck that looks exactly like the trash truck.

The recycle crew is dedicated to collecting only recyclable material so that when the recycle truck arrives at the recycling facility, it can be separated for processing. If you want additional information or have more questions or concerns about our services, please submit them directly to customerservice@besttrashtexas.com.

New Trash Collection Provider

Effective November 22nd, Best Trash will be your new trash and recycle collection provider.

Trash will be collected Monday and Thursday.

Recycle will be split in the District:

  • Residents to the East of Queenston Boulevard will have recycle collection Monday.
  • Residents to the West of Queenston Boulevard will have recycle collection on Thursday.
    (Thursday recycle collection begins Thursday, December 2, 2021 because there is no collection on Thanksgiving Day.)

Best Trash will provide one 48-gallon recycle cart. New recycle carts will be delivered the week of November 15th. Do not use Best Trash recycle carts until November 22nd.

Please have trash and recycling out by 7:00 a.m.

Please see attached document showing collection guidelines and District split for recycle collection.

Detention Pond Sites

Greetings from the Board of Directors of your MUD. Please note that any orange construction fencing or other markings of areas in detention ponds in the MUD are not permanent. The MUD is evaluating the conditions of certain detention ponds.

The MUD owns and operates the detention pond sites for the primary purpose of providing stormwater detention and drainage services to property owners in the district. The static level of water in certain detention ponds and any recreational facilities on those sites (e.g., walking trails, benches, and hard-edged shorelines)are there for amenity and aesthetics purposes which are the responsibility of the HOA.

Please be careful if you enter the detention pond sites where the public is allowed. See the map on our website to see which areas the public is allowed or prohibited from entering. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the MUD or its consultants through the email addresses provided on this website.
