San Antonio needs new source
Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — Springs
and water wells could begin going
dry in 25 years if San Antonio
does not establish an alternate
water source separate from the
Edwards Aquifer, a study shows.
The report, commissioned by
the Edwards Underground Wa
ter District and the San Antonio
City Council, also indicated the
regional demand for water is ex
pected to double by the year
2040.
The report came simulta
neously with news that the level
of the Edwards Aquifer had
dropped 3 feet because of sky
rocketing consumption during
the weekend.
The water use study also said
springs will go dry in the year
2010 under average conditions,
said Norm Brazelton, one of the
study’s chief architects.
“Some wells would be starting
to go dry almost in the next de
cade,” he said Monday in a pre
sentation to members of the dis
trict board and the council.
Brazelton also predicted rural
users will be affected more than
municipal users.
Carl Raba, chairman of the stu
dy’s technical advisory commit
tee, said only the study’s technical
portion has been completed. The
entire study, including alternative
. solutions, won’t be completed un
til January 1986.
Mayor Henry Cisneros said the
hardest part of the study is yet to
come — sorting through the pos
sible solutions.
Raba said the study did not ad
dress maintaining the quality of
the water in the
aquifer, which provides
drinking water for Bexar, j
Medina, Hays, Comal and '
Uvalde counties.
Water district trustee Fay
Sinkin said protecting the
quality of the aquifer water is es
sential. She also criticized San An
tonio city officials for not moving
sooner to protect the aquifer.
W
at
“San Antonio has not passed a
single piece of legislation to ad
dress tnat issue,” she said. “You
can’t sell the city on surface water
unless it protects the aquifer.”

Austin guaranteed water needs until 2020
Associated Press
AUSTIN — Austin’s popula
tion can double by 2020 and still
have plenty of free water from
the Colorado River and its lakes,
the Texas Water Commission has
ruled.
Officials said if the city had to
buy the water from the Lower
Colorado River Authority it
would cost city water users $10
million a year.
At the same time Monday the
commission guaranteed the
LCRA, which operates the chain
of lakes along the Colorado, only
half of the water it asked.
The LCRA said it would ap
peal the commission decision and
go to state district court if nec
essary in an effort to get the rul
ing changed.
“If we don’t have water rights,
we don’t have any way to pay our
costs of operation,” said Bill West
LCRA water director. He said the
authority has contracted to sell
more water than the commission
granted it.
The state commission began
reviewing water rights on the Col
orado River in 19/6 and consid
ered the decision Monday one of
the most complicated it has made.
Austin officials had asked the
commission to fix the city water
supply at an amount that would
meet projected needs until the
year 2030.
Hearing examiner Jim Rourke
said the commission had recently
set Brazos River cities at levels of
projected needs until the year
2020 and wanted to be consistent
T he decision confirms city
rights to a portion of the water
flowing into the Highland bites
At times, the city uses more than
its portion of tne inflow to the
seven-lake system and, unden
contract with the river authority,
takes water stored in the lakes.
“We’re stretching water rights
as far as we can,” Commissioner
Les Biggart said.
Animals
(continued from page 1)
>osed by U.S. Rep.
One bill proposea oy u.b. k
Robert Torricelli, D-N.J., would re
strict much of the animal use cur
rently acceptable. Supporters of the
legislation claim the new guidelines
would prevent the unnecessary use
of animals while those opposed say it
would make biomedical research too
costly to continue.
Torricelli’s proposal would estab
lish a 20-member presidentially ap
pointed board to review all funding
requests by researchers using verte
brates. Additionally, it would pre
vent duplicate research and establish
a national biomedical literature serv
ice for scientists in the research com
munity.
PETA spokeswoman Newkirk
says her organization supports the
proposal and “any piece of legis
lation which would take the animals
out of the labs.”
Jack Crawford, a researcher and
animal welfare spokesman for the
University of Texas Health Science
Center at Houston, says the Torri
celli bill “would bring all of biomedi
cal research to a standstill.” At risk,
he says, is research ranging from ar
tificial hearts to disease study. He
criticizes the proposal for eliminat
ing duplicate research because it
would make validation of data im
possible.
“Science, throughout history, has
relied on validation of findings by
other laboratories,” Crawford says.
“That is, independent investigation
by an independent investigator to
give validity to reported research
findings .... If you’ve got to rely on
one laboratory for a particular set of
scientific findings, then you have got
a lot of trouble.”
And Barbara Rich, assistant exec
utive director of the National Asso
ciation for Biomedical Research,
says that expecting a panel of 20 to
review the 15,000 to 16,000 funding
requests received annually is unrea
listic. Fierce competition between re
searchers results in less than 30 per
cent of requests being funded and,
she says, it weeds out unnecessary
duplicate proposals and stops ques
tionable research.
The Torricelli proposal has been
sent to the congressional Energy and
Commerce Committee and the
Health and Environment Subcom
mittee.
