As extreme drought worsens in the Corpus Christi area, Lake Corpus Christi and Choke Canyon were at 42% of capacity, down from 43.7% a week ago. The trigger for stage 1 water restrictions is 40%. The city manager said that they plan to declare stage 1 restrictions at the June 14 city council meeting. City officials were actively looking for a secondary water source and were concerned about drought.
The city manager urged the public to start practicing water conservation as stage 1 restrictions neared.
