Untreated vs Treated Watershed Study Questions Water Supply
An editor's note introduces a three part series by the Soil Conservation Service on whether soil conservation reduces municipal and industrial water. Texas conservationist H N Smith notes little difference in runoff between treated and untreated watersheds during normal years but drought years show reduced runoff. overall reservoir planning must account for dry-year deficits. The Blacklands project near Riesel, begun in 1940, compares rainfall and runoff under grassland and terrace practices versus no change, with results suggesting drought runoff remains too small to rely on for stable city supply.
