Edwards board rejects water plan as two thirds needed for approval
Comal County directors S Craig Hollmig and Carroll Hoffmann joined three others in opposing Green Valley Water Corporation’s request for 2 800 acre feet of Edwards Aquifer water by 1990. The Edwards Underground Water District must vote again next month, as a two thirds majority is required. The request follows Green Valley’s current pumping of 500 000 to 600 000 gallons daily from New Braunfels wells. Local officials note regional needs and caution against exporting more water amid droughts and low aquifer levels.
