The Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) and Austin have finalized an agreement to work together to plan a long-term
water supply for the City of Austin - up to 250,000 acre-feet of additional water through 2100. A formal, collaborative
framework called the Water Partnership has been established, under which LCRA and Austin will work together to assess
opportunities to manage water supplies to meet the needs of this region. The Water Partnership will evaluate the
appropriate timing and amount of water supply Austin will need based on demand projections. The Water Partnership
will also evaluate various water supply alternatives to meet Austin's future water demand and present recommendations
to the Austin City Council and LCRA Board for approval.
