Program Description

Event Details

Water Conservation Series

This week we’ll be discussing aquifer types, current Comal County water table levels, our two types of aquifers, common misconceptions about aquifers, rates at which groundwater moves through an aquifer, depletion and replenishment rates, and natural filtration.

This session is part of the Water Conservation Series, presented in partnership with Dr. Steven Grainger and Dr. Larry Sunn, rain harvesting consultants with Rain Bees

These workshops were developed in response to common questions and concerns about various topics related to water conservation, rain gardens, grass, water quality, pollinators, planting & pruning, and ecological issues. The workshops provide overviews (with questions and answers) for Hill Country residents to better understand water conservation needs. The 14 sessions in this weekly series take place on Mondays from 12:00pm to 1:30pm beginning June 8th and ending in September. Feel free to bring your lunch while you learn about ways we all can protect our precious water sources!

By registering for this event, you will be registered for all of the sessions in this series and will receive an email reminder the day before each session. Join us for all sessions in this series or just the sessions that interest you!
