Tapping Tomorrow: Houston's Water Prospects for the Next Century
After long‐term groundwater pumping increased subsidence‐related flood risk in Houston, the Texas legislature created subsidence districts to manage groundwater use.
Reducing groundwater pumping requires alternative water supplies (AWSs) to meet current and future water demands.
An assessment of AWS options in the Houston area determined that potential supplies should be more than ample to meet anticipated growth and demand.
