The Canyon Lake Fight

Here is another article. This one is on what is happening down on Canyon Lake. I am sure you, like most of us, felt some kind of relief at the recent announcement about the lack of water in the Canyon Lake are and that there was not enough water for all the developments that are planned. 

Canyon Lake residents recently met to learn more. Nathan Glavy from the Greater Edwards Aquifer Alliance was there to talk about the process of challenging a permit to discharge. Yes, this community is fighting development on two fronts: 1) there is not enough water to support the planned build 2) just because the lake is dry doesn’t mean it is a good idea to discharge effluent into a lake bed, dry stream or river bed. 

Don’t suppose there is a developer out there willing to build a neighborhood where every home is equipped with a rainwater catchment system so no one has to drill a well or pipe in water from a provider. Who knows? That may be the only way in the near future.
