Senate Bill 727 |
Senate Author: Seliger |

Effective: 4-29-11 |
House Sponsor: Beck |
Current law requires a groundwater conservation district whose creation required confirmation to submit its management plan to the executive administrator of the Texas Water Development Board for review and approval after its confirmation election and also requires each district located within the boundaries of a management area in which two or more districts are located to forward a copy of the district's new or revised management plan to the other districts. Senate Bill 727 amends the Water Code to require a district to submit the plan not later than three years after its confirmation election and to remove the condition that the plan be forwarded on completion and approval of the plan. The bill also updates references to a district's comprehensive management plan.
