Previously funded conservation measures projects include: City of League City received $49,580 for the detection of waterline leaks utilizing interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) techniques that enabled areas of interest to focus field investigation. This project also involved field acoustic leak detection and associated waterline repair. 42% of points of interest have been field inspected as of December 2020.​​ 9.1% reduction in water loss, 92,600 gpd real water loss savings totaling $66,900 savings per year.​​ Harris County Fresh Water Supply District 1A received $38,225 for the reduction of water loss through acoustic leak detection and waterline repair. Approximately 74,000 feet of water line were inspected and over 60 leaks were repaired ranging from service lines, main lines, valves, and fire hydrants. Repairs were completed in June 2023 saving approximately 3.5 MG of water that year. Additionally, 10 unauthorized connections were identified amounting to a water savings of 45,000 gallons per month. Harris County Municipal District No. 50 received $1,836 for the implementation of shower head replacement for residents to improve water efficiency at home. 302 EPA WaterSense-approved showerheads were distributed to residents of HCMUD 50 by the end of July 2023. The estimated water savings for 2023 was 974,562 gallons based on EPA calculations for showerhead water usage and HCMUD 50 data for residential indoor water use.
