The state of Texas is projecting a 73% population increase over the next 50 years! When thinking about all that water usage, how do we ensure water security for a growing state? PAE’s Associate Principal Justin Stenkamp was a technical advisor for the Texas Net Zero Water Toolkit, which aims to guide property developers, owners, and other professionals in smart water design. By using Net Zero Water principles that offer developments ways to capture, store, and treat water onsite, buildings can shift the traditional water cycle and provide for their own water, independence, and resiliency.

Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller has recently opened up about the water crisis in Texas. In his recent op-ed, Miller highlights the water issues facing Texas, particularly farmers, stating “we lose about a farm a week.” He also promotes solutions such as capturing storm water, reusing treated water, and improving irrigation efficiency in order to “maximize every drop." Miller adds that Texans should be talking more about these problems, and lawmakers and other leaders need to act.
