Our top story: Lake Corpus Christi stands at just over 9% capacity, and Choke Canyon Reservoir, the other primary source, is below 8% full. A formal Level 1 #water emergency, requiring mandatory cuts across all users, could be declared as early as May.

Our top story: Industrial facilities now account for 50 to 60% of the city’s total #water consumption—reflecting the scale at which industrial demand now operates within a system never sized for prolonged drought at this level of consumption. https://www.texasobserver.org/corpus-christi-water-crisis-climate-projections/

New from Mezabahnur Masum: Industrial facilities now account for 50 to 60% of the city’s total #water consumption. Individual facilities can consume several billion gallons annually—reflecting the scale at which industrial demand now operates within a system that was never sized for prolonged drought at this level of consumption. https://www.texasobserver.org/corpus-christi-water-crisis-climate-projections/
