Colorado River water district seeks reservoir plan amid regional opposition
Joe Pickle argues CRMWD seeks to impound 85 000 acre feet downstream, arguing Texas Water Commission should authorize a water supply fair to the Highlands area. He notes population and resource disparities, opposition from counties, and pressures from LCRA and Austin over “rainbow permits” while asserting need for municipal growth and continued Highland Lakes usefulness.
