The removal of certain proposed reservoir sites from the state water plan

Texas HB2109 proposes to remove specific proposed reservoir sites from the state's water management plan. This means that certain areas that were considered for new reservoirs will no longer be included in state planning efforts. The bill aims to address concerns about land use and environmental impact in those areas.

Supporters of HB2109 argue that the bill prioritizes local communities and protects valuable land from being developed into reservoirs. They believe it reflects a commitment to sustainable water management that takes into account environmental and community needs.

Critics of HB2109 contend that removing these proposed reservoir sites could hinder Texas's ability to manage water resources effectively in the future. They argue that it may lead to water shortages and limit options for addressing the state's growing water demands.
