TESPA’s gets OK to intervene in groundwater suit

‘This action by Aqua is a threat to all groundwater users in Texas because it threatens the regulatory fabric and framework that we have here in Texas.’ – Jim Blackburn.

AUSTIN — A federal court granted the Trinity Edwards Springs Protection Association’s (TESPA) motion to intervene in an ongoing lawsuit between Aqua Texas and the Hays Trinity Groundwater Conservation District (HTGCD).

Aqua Texas filed the lawsuit in December 2023 against HTGCD and its board of directors for “unlawful and unequal treatment” and for “complete disregard for Aqua Texas’ legal obligation to provide ‘continuous and adequate’ water service to more than 3,000 customers in Hays County,” read a news release that was sent out earlier this year.
