Lone Star GCD Symposium

Join us as we celebrate LSGCD's 25th Anniversary with a day of groundwater learning and discussion featuring experts and special guests.
About this Event

The Symposium’s purpose is to promote water awareness and foster meaningful discussion among groundwater conservation districts, river authorities, elected officials, water professionals, and the public.

More details—including speakers, agenda—will be announced soon.

Tickets to the LSGCD Symposium are free, but tickets are required to attend because seating is limited. Lunch will be provided.

Free Water Well Screening

The Lone Star Groundwater Conservation District (LSGCD), in partnership with the Texas Well Owner Network (TWON), will offer complimentary water well screening for private water wells located in Montgomery County, Texas.

Please note: All groundwater wells in Montgomery County are required to be registered with LSGCD.

Water samples will be screened for contaminants, including:

• Total coliform bacteria
• E. coli
• Nitrate-nitrogen
• Salinity

After registration is complete, participants will receive instructions regarding the screening process, sample collection, sample drop-off date, and drop-off location. Screening results will be provided during the LSGCD Symposium, where Dr. Joel Pigg of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service and TWON coordinator, will lead an educational session titled “Well Informed.” The session will cover water well basics, Water Wells 101, water quality, and an explanation of participants’ sample results.
