    Why not pass a law where we stop watering our lawns ? The amount of water waisted watering our lawns is the problem.

      You don’t need a law for that.
      Just make HOA’s stop mandating year-round green lawns like the do in so many places and people will finally be able to do what makes sense.

      Incorrect. Lawn irrigation is a tiny portion of the water used. Evaporation is the main culprit, accounting for 50% of the water “used” from Lake Travis.

    Alot of big houses on the lake , draw the water directly out of the lake to water their big yards , for free and don't follow watering regulations

    Well, Austin needs to figure out its own water issues without stealing from the rest of Centex, first of all. That ought to be the basis for their strategy of how to water Austin. The rest of us would like to maintain our own water sources without it getting pumped to your cr*p hole.

    What a travesty. LCRA is ruining Lake Travis home values, and boat recreation. Not to mention the restaurant bars that have closed down because of low levels. We care more about lake recreation and boat parties ! Stop building homes out here.

    Why doesn't Texas build desalination plants and pump water up to Northwest Texas. We are bringing in more people, that means we need more water. 2+2=4. Just do it. Sooner than later.

      That's really expensive and would require a lot of energy. pumping water up to northwest Texas will also require a lot of energy. Not saying it can't be done but it would be a big project. Who would pay for it?

    People will still go to Lake Travis for recreation and BBQ even when it becomes a mud hole and think nothing is wrong all while never questioning what is going on in our skies.
    Lockheed Martin and Raytheon are turning off the spigot of rainfall over the Rockies and deliberately drying up lakes, rivers and aquifers. NO ONE NOTICES A THING ..... Sad.
