Medina County GCD is currently a member of three Groundwater Management Areas (GMAs) in Texas.
A GMA is not a political entity, and is instead a committee of representatives from GCDs within a GMA.
Medina County GCD intends to petition for the moving of the GMA 9 & 10 boundary, removing it from
GMA 9 and placing the vacated space within GMA 10.
The puropse of the GMAs is to prvide a mechanism of joint planning and communication of concerns.
The GMAs meet at least annually. They also meet no later than five years adopt
Desired Future Conditions (DFC) for aquifers under their jurisdiction. Some aquifers are found to have
characteristics that do not make them relevant for joint planning, and so are left to the GCD to regulate.
This Quick Handbook on Geologic Formations Related to Groundwater in
Medina County provides information about some of the most common questions
about groundwater within the GCD.
