Water Plan Seeks Coastal Canal to Boost South Texas Irrigation
The Texas Water Plan proposes a coastal canal from near the Sabine River to the Lower Rio Grande Valley to move surplus river water and reservoir releases. It also envisions a Rio Grande link to Del Rio’s Winter Garden and a potential San Antonio water pipeline, with first deliveries in 1980 if timelines hold. The plan notes the Lower Valley could irrigate up to 1.4 million acres with adequate water, but Rio Grande allocations remain legally unsettled.
