Mission Statement

The Real Edwards Conservation and Reclamation District was created by House Bill 447 in the 56th Texas Legislature in 1959. The District was created to provide for the conservation, preservation, protection, recharge and prevention of waste of the underground water reservoirs located under the District consistent with Article XVI, Section 59, of the Texas Constitution and Chapter 36 of the Texas Water Code. The District strives to bring about conservation, preservation and the efficient, beneficial and wise use of water for the benefit of the citizens and the economy of the District through monitoring and protecting the quantity and quality of the groundwater. The District also strives to maintain groundwater ownership and rights of the landowners as provided in the Texas Water Code 36. 002
