Texas Water Systems Research and Strategic Analysis
Our firm conducted extensive research and analysis culminating in the development of a comprehensive primer on Texas water supply and demand challenges, completed in 2025. The work examined the complex interaction of population growth, economic development, infrastructure constraints, and climate variability shaping water availability across the state.
The analysis evaluated Texas water planning regions, long-term drought trends, flash flooding patterns, land subsidence risks, and the policy and institutional frameworks governing water management. Particular focus was placed on identifying structural gaps created by rapid growth, the large number of small and fragmented water suppliers, and the increasing need for coordinated statewide planning and resource optimization.
Using systems-based analysis and extensive data evaluation, regional water losses, supply imbalances, and operational inefficiencies were quantified to better understand where strategic interventions could improve resilience and long-term sustainability. A comprehensive mind map was developed to illustrate the interconnected relationships among water supply, demand drivers, regulatory policies, infrastructure investment, and conservation programs.
The findings were published in the volume Texas Water 101: Forging Resilience Through Innovation and Adaptation, providing decision-makers, utilities, and policymakers with a practical framework for understanding risks, identifying opportunities, and developing adaptive strategies for managing water resources under increasing environmental and economic pressures. Researched and completed a primer on understanding Texas water supply and demand issues in Texas in 2025. This included a review of Texas water regions, drought trends, flash floods, land subsidence, and policies and programs to help bridge the growing imbalance of economic development, the high number of small water suppliers, and the need for improved statewide water planning and management. A mind map of water supply and demand issues, policies, and programs in the State of Texas is provided. Extensive data analysis was completed of regional water losses and imbalances in Texas was completed. The results were published in the volume: Texas Water 101: Forging Resilience Through Innovation and Adaptation.
