Sandbag Distribution Program Returns to Regular Schedule
With rain moving into the area, El Paso Water officials remind residents that there is only one location to pick up sandbags in the city.
The Stormwater Operations Center, located at 4801 Fred Wilson, is open throughout the year. Customers can get sandbags between 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The limit is 10 bags per visit. Please bring a copy of your water bill.
Persons who cannot lift heavy items should be accompanied by someone who can assist with loading and unloading the bags.
The Central location was closed for the season at the end of September. All seasonal satellite sites will reopen next summer.
