NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

GONZALES COUNTY UNDERGROUND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT

MEETING OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

for

Groundwater Management Area 13

Proposed Desired Future Conditions and Relevant Aquifer Designations

The Directors of the Gonzales County Underground Water Conservation District will meet in a public hearing on July 13, 2021, scheduled at 5:30 p.m. at the Gonzales County Underground Water Conservation District Office located at 522 Saint Matthew Street, Gonzales, Texas.

The agenda is as follows:   

1. Call to Order.
2. Open public hearing for Groundwater Management Area 13 Proposed Desired Future Conditions and Relevant Aquifer Designations.
3. Accept oral and written comments, testimony, and other documentation and information relevant to the Proposed GMA 13 Desired Future Conditions and Relevant Aquifer Classifications.
4. Close public hearing.
5. Adjourn.

Groundwater Management Area 13 (GMA 13) which consists of the Evergreen Underground Water Conservation District, Gonzales County Underground Water Conservation District, Guadalupe County Groundwater Conservation District, McMullen Groundwater Conservation District, Medina County Groundwater Conservation District, Plum Creek Conservation District, Uvalde County Underground Water Conservation District, and Wintergarden Groundwater Conservation District approved the following proposed Desired Future Conditions (DFCs) and designated non-relevant aquifers at the April 23, 2021 meeting.

The first proposed DFC for the Carrizo-Wilcox, Queen City and Sparta aquifers in GMA 13 is that 75 percent of the saturated thickness in the outcrop at the end of 2012 remains at the end of 2080. Due to limitations of the current Groundwater Availability Model, this DFC cannot be simulated as documented during 2016 Joint Planning in GMA 13 Technical Memorandum 16-08.  A secondary proposed DFC for the Carrizo-Wilcox, Queen City, and Sparta aquifers in GMA 13 is an average drawdown of 49 feet (+/- 5 feet) for all of GMA 13. The drawdown is calculated from the end of 2012 conditions through the year 2080. This DFC is consistent with simulation “GMA13_2019_001” summarized during a meeting of GMA 13 members on March 19, 2021.

GMA 13 approved the following proposed DFC for the Yegua-Jackson Aquifer in GMA 13: For Gonzales County, the average drawdown from end of 2010 through 2080 is 3 feet (+/- 1 foot). For Karnes County, the average drawdown from end of 2010 through 2080 is 1 foot (+/- 1 foot). For all other counties in GMA 13, the Yegua-Jackson is classified as not relevant for purposes of joint planning.

GMA 13 approved the following proposed declaration of non-relevant aquifers in GMA 13: GMA 13 does hereby document, record, and confirm that the Edwards (Balcones Fault Zone), Gulf Coast, and Trinity aquifers are not relevant for purposes of joint planning within GMA 13 and therefore do not require the establishment of DFCs by GMA 13, nor the determination by the Texas Water Development Board of Modeled Available Groundwater for those aquifers in GMA 13.

Questions, requests for additional information, and public comments may be submitted to the General Manager of the Gonzales County Underground Water Conservation District by mail, phone, or email: P.O. Box 1919, Gonzales, Texas 78629, 830.672.1047, greg.sengelmann@gcuwcd.org.
