City Statement: Correcting Information Regarding Corpus Christi Water
By City of Corpus Christi
Mar 09, 2026

For the Record

The City of Corpus Christi is committed to ensuring that our residents have access to accurate, complete information regarding our regional water supply. Following a recent article written by Inside Climate News and republished by the Texas Tribune and other publications, the City is issuing this formal clarification to correct misinformation in the article.

The article states that the “City will run out of water next year.” This is untrue. The City has Invested Nearly $1 Billion in Active Water Solutions.

The recent reporting focused heavily on potential "catastrophe" while entirely omitting the City’s nearly $1 billion investment in diversified, drought-proof water infrastructure. These projects are not "plans" for the future; they are active construction and engineering efforts:

Nueces River Groundwater Wells Project:
- Eastern Well Field 10 MGD
- Western Well Field 17 MGD
- ERF Well Field 9 MGD

Evangeline Groundwater Project 24 MGD

Reclaimed Water Project 16 MGD

Seawater Desalination:
- Inner Harbor Location
- Harbor Island Location
- Barney Davis Power Plant Location
