What will BRA do with the money earned from the sale?
The 2002 State Water Plan determined that in 50 years Texas would not have enough water supplies to meet the needs of the entire population of the state. The BRA would use the money from the divestiture of BRA-owned leaseholds to begin building necessary water supply infrastructure such as the Allens Creek Reservoir, which is estimated to cost in excess of $200 million.
