Water sustains East Texas communities, supports agriculture and forestry, provides drinking water across the region and shapes the economy. At the same time, communities are navigating aging infrastructure, changing water needs, workforce shortages, and gaps in accessible water information. The East Texas Water Institute will serve as a regional hub connecting communities with research, technical expertise, workforce development, public education and partners who can help move important water work forward.
