Texas is one step closer to spending billions of dollars to address the state’s groundwater shortages after officials approved a draft blueprint for the next statewide water plan on Thursday.
Under review by the Texas Water Development Board, the plan would allocate $174 billion to 3,000 water supply projects until 2080. The state’s water supplies are projected to decrease by about 10% over the next five decades, according to new analysis reported by the Texas Tribune.
