The San Antonio Water System is exploring ways to keep the city's thirst quench as it grows and grows. One such proposal is to buy water from a Val Verde company called V.V. Water Co. who would pump more than a hundred thousand gallons per year and get it to SAWS.
This plan has Del Rio residents fuming and the Mayor of Del Rio, Roberto Fernandez, vowed to do everything he could to stop SAWS from going through with the deal. The plan is proving unpopular outside of Val Verde ask well. Joining us to talk about the plan is Del Rio city council member, Mike Wrop, and Annalisa Peace from the Greater Edwards Aquifer Alliance.
