We will now be getting water form an aquifer in the Bastrop county area

This affects all families in our area because they all receive water

This is very awesome that we can now receive water from other sources. Hays county is always in a drought and now that we have access to other water it is kind of a burden lifted. What worries me is, now that we will get our water from Bastrop as well as them using it for themselves, how long will it last? Our environment is losing so much water so fast, especially in central Texas. Where will get our water when its all gone from this aquifer?
