SAWS Granted Permits for One of its Largest Non-Edwards Supplies
The San Antonio Water System moved toward securing one of the largest non-Edwards Aquifer supplies in its history. The Gonzales County Underground Water Conservation District will permit SAWS to move up to 11,687 acre-ft of Carrizo Aquifer water from Gonzales County.
The SAWS Regional Carrizo Aquifer Project is estimated at $131 million, with water for approximately 40,000 households expected to start flowing in late 2013.
