Webinar: Can Correlative Allocations Save Texas' Groundwater?

This is a recording of a webinar that took place on April 14, 2025. Groundwater is essential to life in Texas. It supplies over half of our state’s water—keeping our taps running, crops growing, and communities thriving. But with more people using more water than ever before, our aquifers are under serious stress. How do we protect this precious resource while making sure everyone gets a fair share? View this recording of a special webinar featuring Dr. Robert E. Mace, Executive Director of The Meadows Center for Water and the Environment, as he shares a promising new approach: correlative allocations. Drawing from the findings of the new report, “Coupled Correlative Allocations for Groundwater Management in Texas,” Dr. Mace will explore how this innovative, fair-share strategy could help balance landowner rights with the urgent need to sustainably manage Texas’ groundwater resources. What You'll Learn: • Why current groundwater management strategies are falling short. • How correlative allocations work—and why tying them to sustainability goals matters. • Real-world examples from Texas groundwater conservation districts already putting this idea into action. • How correlative allocations can help create new opportunities for water markets and conservation. This event is free and open to the public. Whether you're a landowner, water manager, policymaker, or simply care about the future of Texas water, this webinar will give you fresh insights into how we can protect our most precious resource.
