Following notification of a proposed groundwater production project in Bexar county, TGR commenced with a regional impact study through WSP to assess potential impacts. The project would include the activation of production wells located in northeastern Bexar County. Click the link below to read the report.

USGS Spring Survey Results

 

US Geological Survey has compiled and released a spring survey report. USGS partnered with TGRGCD, Edwards Aquifer Authority and San Antonio River Authority to create a geodatabase of springs throughout northern Bexar County.

LBG-Guyton Structure Maps and Stratigraphy Dataset for TGRGCD

 

LBG-Guyton Associates prepared a stratigraphic dataset and two structure maps for the Trinity Glen Rose Groundwater Conservation District in Northern Bexar County.  The structure maps represent the top of the lower Glen Rose and top of the Cow Creek formations, within the Trinity Aquifer.

WSP Exempt Well Study 

 

Under the District’s enabling legislation, a conservative estimate of approximately 80% of groundwater produced by public water systems (PWS) from the Trinity Group of Aquifers within TGR boundaries is exempted from regulation. WSP compiled and analyzed production potential from these statutorily exempt wells across the District.
