摘要

In 1997, the Texas Legislature passed Senate Bill 1 (SB1) and created a grass-roots regional water planning process in which local representatives develop strategies to meet water needs for the next 50 years. The Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) oversees development of the regional plans and develops a State Water Plan from them. Planning is controlled at the regional level and overseen and funded by the state. Texas has completed two rounds of regional water planning under SB1, and a third round is underway. The SB 1 regional water planning effort has been a tremendous success. The public has become more involved and more aware of the need to conserve water and secure water supplies for the future. The planning process has encouraged cooperation in the development of new supplies. State funding has been made available for low-interest loans to develop projects from the State Water Plan. The most recent State Water Plan identified 4,500 recommended water management strategies to develop 9 million acre-feet per year in new water supplies to serve a state expected to grow from 21 million people in 2000 to 46 million in 2060. The cost of these strategies is estimated as $30.7 billion (in 2002 dollars). Planning for Texas includes planning for two of the nation's six largest metropolitan areas - Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston. Examples from those regions show major water issues in Texas, including rapid growth in population and demands, the need for water for the environment, limited groundwater resources, and permitting challenges.
