Introduction

• What is the Surface Water Supply Project (SWSP)?

– Joint effort between WHCRWA and NFBWA to provide surface water to their constituents – Goal is to comply with the Harris Galveston Subsidence District (HGSD) and Fort Bend Subsidence District (FBSD) regulations – HGSD/FBSD mandate conversion from groundwater to surface water at varying amounts at certain timeframes – SWSP is a series of multiple projects utilizing parallel construction – Project by Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) SWIFT monies and Open Market
