The Court of Appeals of Texas has determined that in the absence of a Natural Resource Conservation Commission (NRCC) order directed to a water utility to refund or credit unauthorized charges, the state's water code does not grant the NRCC the right to bring an action in court to recover those charges for the benefit of the water utility's customers.
