We must stand together with other West Texas water planning regions to counter-balance the water needs of Central Texas. Each citizen of the Big Country has an opportunity to make a difference for our economic future. Citizens must focus on the value of water planning. We must learn about local, regional, and state plans, and not be afraid to fully support these efforts. Good water planning will insure our hopes.
Local communities can survive.
Cooperation will not destroy local school rivalries or community identities. We must guide regional efforts as statewide water planning starts again next month. The success of these water projects is critical in order to guarantee economic growth. E.W. Scripps Publications , All Rights Reserved. Site users are subject to our User Agreement .
