Water BUYs may pay off soon
Victoria has been buying water rights along the Guadalupe River over the last four years, and it might not be long before residents see the payoff.
Jerry James, Victoria’s director of Environmental Services, said the drought could force the city to begin using the water by year’s end.
“The river depends upon spring flow, and right now the spring flow is continuing to drop,” he said. “Weather forecasters are predicting we won’t see significant rainfall during this next rainy season.”
