Our Mission
for The Edwards Aquifer
The Edwards Aquifer Conservancy’s mission is to support and benefit the work of the Edwards Aquifer Authority.
The Edwards Aquifer Authority manages, enhances and protects the Edwards Aquifer, which provides water for drinking and other essential purposes for over 2.5 million Texans on a daily basis.
Why Invest
In the Edwards Aquifer Conservancy
W ater is life, pure and simple. Without it, there are no homes to build, businesses to exist, farms to irrigate, animals to raise, no industries to grow and prosper, and most importantly, none to drink and maintain life. Without the Edwards Aquifer, cities like Uvalde, San Antonio, New Braunfels and San Marcos simply don’t exist.
Eight Counties and Over
Texans rely on the Edwards Aquifer.
186 Billion Gallons
