TWDB Directors To Adopt 2017 State Water Plan
Directors of the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) will consider adoption of the 2017 State Water Plan next Thursday, May 19.
The Draft State Water Plan, which enumerates the state’s water planning through 2070, was approved by the board in March and has been posted on the TWDB’s website since then. It was open to public comment until April 25. The plan includes 2,400 recommended water management strategy projects that would cost, if all of them were implemented, $62.6 billion.
As well, the TWDB directors will consider financial assistance for water system and wastewater system improvements and hear an update on drought conditions in Texas.
