Diversifying our water supply & planning for the future
Just a few years ago, San Antonio was completely dependent on day-to-day pumping from the Edwards Aquifer for the city’s water needs. Now, as a result of extensive planning, and funding through the Water Supply Fee, SAWS has made great strides in diversifying our water supply and is working to secure San Antonio’s water future.
