SB 1629 expands the authority of the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) to manage the Texas Water Bank and certain state water funds. It allows funds to be used for desalination projects, aquifer storage and recovery, and infrastructure to integrate new water sources into existing supply systems. The bill also enhances the board’s ability to facilitate water rights transactions and develop interregional water supply projects, aiming to improve water availability and conservation efforts statewide.
