 Water
is the most important natural resource for the future of
Texas. In order to succeed in the face of
continued drought and a growing population, Texans must
better understand our statewide water needs, and then
make smart choices about how we manage and conserve this
unique resource for generations to come. We hope
you will share your ideas and support for our efforts to
educate, motivate, and collaborate with fellow Texans on
key water issues.
