Big thanks to Bill Taylor from KENS 5 for this week’s weather update! ☀️

Looks like we’re in for a stretch of warm, sunny days! With no rain expected until early April. As temperatures stay high, it’s a great time to keep water conservation top of mind and do your part to protect... your aquifer.💧

Small actions make a big impact, let’s stay mindful together! 🌎✨

🌾 Happy National Agricultural Day! 🌾

The EAA region is thriving with a variety of crops, from corn, cotton, and sorghum to cucumbers, wheat, and sunflowers. Did you know that just over 50% of EAA permit holders are agricultural producers?

Through the EAA’s Groundwater ...Conservation Grant Program, local farmers are installing water-efficient irrigation systems, subsurface drip systems, and soil moisture sensors—helping protect our precious aquifer while keeping crops strong and productive.

💧 Supporting farmers, conserving water, and growing our community—today and every day.

In honor of World Water Day yesterday, we’re diving into a few surprising facts you might not know about water, and the vital role the Edwards Aquifer and groundwater plays in our everyday lives! 🌎💧

By conserving water, we play a role in protecting the aquifer that supports our ...communities, ecosystems, and future generations. And the impact goes far beyond what’s underground, the aquifer sustains wildlife above and below the surface, protecting the habitats that depend on it every day.

Every drop we save contributes to a more sustainable and equitable future. Let’s work together to conserve water, protect your aquifer, and ensure this vital resource continues to support life, for everyone. 💙

Casey Cowan is here sharing how the Edwards Aquifer Authority helps protect land over the Edwards Aquifer through conservation easements. Through our partnerships with the City of San Antonio and landowners, the placement of easements on key properties helps ensure this land is carefully stewarded ...and remains in its natural state to positively impact recharge and water quality.💧

These conservation efforts play a critical role in safeguarding one of Central Texas’ most important water sources, helping ensure the aquifer remains healthy and sustainable for generations to come.

💧 Aquifer In-Sight: Abandoned wells aren’t just relics, they can pose real risks to our water supply.

In this episode, Roger Andrade, Senior Director of Regulatory Affairs at the Edwards Aquifer Authority, highlights a 100+ year-old well that’s over 1,100 feet deep and no longer in ...use.

Wells like this, if not properly plugged, can become pathways for contamination, threatening the health of the aquifer that millions depend on.

Properly plugging unused wells isn’t just good practice, it’s essential for protecting our water for generations to come. 💧
