Cypress Creek Project

Workshop:  Drought and Wells, Springs, and Groundwater Trends in Western Hays County

Wimberley Community Center - Blanco Room

Well owners and groundwater users across Hays County are invited to a Groundwater Workshop on Wednesday, April 19 from 11am-1pm. Presentations will include information on troubleshooting tips and tricks for water supply wells during drought, interpreting data from area springs and groundwater monitoring sites, and drought and groundwater management. This workshop is part of the Cypress Creek Watershed Protection Plan. Speakers include Robin Gary of the Watershed Association, Charlie Flatten of the Hays Trinity Groundwater Conservation District, and Marcus Gary of the Edwards Aquifer Authority.After the workshop, staff will be available to screen well samples for conductivity (which can estimate total dissolved solids) and to help search for drillers reports online (useful information in well completion). If interested in the water screening, participants can fill a clean bottle (Ozarka or reusable water bottle are fine) with water from the closest water faucet to the well head. If interested in locating a drillers log, participants are encouraged to investigate the original house and/or well owner&#x27;s last name (often show on County appraisal records under the History section: https://esearch.hayscad.com/).The workshop is limited to 45 participants due to the room capacity. Please let Robin Gary (robingary@wimberleywatershed.org) know if your RSVP status has changed to free up space for others. This workshop is part of the Cypress Creek Watershed Protection Plan.
