Groundwater rights for up to 15 million gallons of water per day from new Nueces wells have preliminary approval from the Corpus Christi City Council.
A hearing that will determine whether the city of Corpus Christi’s Evangeline groundwater project goes on hold — at least temporarily — has been set.
Corpus Christi approved expanding its western well field to boost water supply, drawing criticism over planning, groundwater impacts and arsenic concerns across region amid drought.
