water from the Edwards Aquifer. Research indicates that removal of Ashe
juniper results in a tremendous increase in groundwater. One such study
reported an increase of 100,000 gal/acre/year with 100% cedar removal.


Selah ranch near Johnson City has a teaching program where they show

and springs that had been dry for years, started flowing again.
