Description: A Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) is issued by the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT), and authorizes a utility to provide water and/or sewer service to a specific service area. The CCN obligates the water or sewer retail public utility to provide continuous and adequate service to every customer who requests service in that area. The maps and digital data provided in the Water and Sewer CCN Viewer delineate the official CCN service areas and CCN facility lines issued by the PUCT and its predecessor agencies. This dataset is a Texas statewide polygon layer of sewer CCN service areas. The CCNs were digitized from Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) county mylar maps. The mylar maps were the base maps on which the CCNs were originally drawn and maintained. CCNs are currently created and maintained using digitizing methods, coordinate geography or imported from digital files submitted by the applicant. TxDOT digital county urban road files are used as the base maps on which the CCNs are geo-referenced. It is best to view the sewer CCN service area data in conjunction with the sewer CCN facility line data, since these two layers together represent all of the retail public sewer utilities in Texas.*Important Notes: The CCN spatial dataset and metadata were last updated on: January 9, 2019Travis County TNR GIS downloaded the original dataset from the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC) CCN Mapping Information site (05-2019) & extracted all features that intersect with the Travis County Boundary polygon, & reprojected them to NAD 83 State Plane Texas Central FIPS 4203 feet, resulting in this dataset of features within Travis County.The official state-wide CCN spatial dataset includes all types of CCN services areas: water and sewer CCN service areas; water and sewer CCN facility lines. This CCN spatial dataset is updated on a quarterly, or as needed basis using Geographic Information System (GIS) software called ArcGIS 10.3.1.The complete state-wide CCN spatial dataset is available for download from the following website: http://www.puc.texas.gov/industry/water/utilities/gis.aspxThe Water and Sewer CCN Viewer may be accessed from the following web site: http://www.puc.texas.gov/industry/water/utilities/map.htmlIf you have questions about this CCN spatial dataset or about CCN mapping requirements, please e-mail CCN Mapping Staff: water@puc.texas.govTYPE - This numeric field indicates whether a CCN is considered a water or a sewer system. If the CCN number begins with a '"1", the CCN is considered a water system (utility). If a CCN number begins with a "2", the CCN is considered a sewer system (utility).CCN_NO - This five-digit alphanumeric field contains a unique number assigned to each CCN when it is created and approved by the Commission.UTILITY - This alphanumeric field contains the name of the utility which owns the CCN.TX_CNTY - This three-character alphanumeric field contains the Texas county code assigned to the Texas county by the TxDOT. This code represents the county which completely contains the CCN. If the CCN crosses county lines, then an "M" is used to indicate multiple counties. COUNTY - This alphanumeric field contains the name(s) of the county(ies) referenced in TX_CNTY.

Description: The TCEQ has 'continuing right of supervision' over water districts in accordance with the Texas Water Code. As part of the regulatory effort, the Water Districts layer has been developed to provide information about the location, district type and acreage of the districts.Metadata: http://www.tceq.texas.gov/assets/public/gis/metadata/water_districts_met.pdfPublication Date: 06-30-2015Travis County TNR GIS downloaded the original dataset from TCEQ's GIS Download site 05-2019 & extracted all features that intersect with the Travis County Boundary polygon & reprojected them to NAD 83 State Plane Texas Central FIPS 4203 feet, resulting in this dataset of features within Travis County.
