Saw a write-up in the Wimberley View newspaper yesterday. Seems there's
a 6
month moratorium on new major water producers (water wells) in west Hays
county. Affects any new businesses, schools, and churches, not single
family dwellings. A permit is required now to drill any water well.
Seems
the aquifers in the area may not support any new major wells. That is
more
water may be going out than in them.

TV weather said El Nina is losing it punch. Will result in less rainfall
this spring and summer in central TX area.


I'd support it. I live here.

Water prices are so high, I cannot really afford to vegetable garden any
more. :-(

So, tell me about water prices where you live. I pay for the electricity
for the water well pump here, that's it. Very spartan with water use,
however, due to its (water well) dubious rainfall recharge in the summer
months and beyond. Live in west Hays county myself.
