 Water Resource Management
Across the state, drought is an all too common and frequent experience in Texas. Increased population growth, from 21 million residents in 2000 to over 35 million in 2040, will also put a strain on our water resources. Preservation Texas offers a number of services to help you capture, store, and monitor the water available to you on your land.
|
• Rainwater Harvesting systems are about the same cost as drilling a well |
• Pond design and construction to keep your water on your property |
|
• A one inch rain generates about 600 gallons for every 1000 sq. ft. |
• Center for Disease Control recommends testing your well annually |
|
• Rainwater Harvesting systems are scalable |
• Complete monitoring systems are available | |

Ponds and Springs
A well designed pond is attractive and adds value to your
property. But it is also quite functional - it provides water for
wildlife and creates more diverse habitat; it can provide erosion control,
capturing water and preventing your land from washing into a creek or onto your
neighbor's property!
Preservation Texas designs and builds ponds to fit your needs. We start with a complete analysis of site selection to optimize water retention. Banks are designed with wildlife and native vegetation in mind. Cover and structure are added to provide good habitat for fish.
Springs are a natural part of Texas, particularly in the aquifer region. Ideally a good brush management plan will be in place to promote good flow. Preservation Texas can then build small pools, benches, and other features to capture and maintain the experience. |
