About Our Water

Post is located in Garza County and is within the Llano Estacado Water Planning Region (Region O).

The water and wastewater utilities serving the city are owned and operated by the city. The city has three sources of municipal water:

  • White River Municipal Water Authority (White River), and

  • The City of Slaton

  • The Southland Well Field Operated by City of Post

White River has been supplying the city with municipal water since the 1960’s and has been subjected to severe drought conditions in recent years. Due to the drought conditions, the city developed a contract to buy municipal water from the City of Slaton. An emergency groundwater well field was developed by the cities of Post, Ralls, Crosbyton and Spur to provide water during prolonged drought and emergency. White River has been granted authority to manage the wells.
