This is kind of civics and economics, so feel free to move it if necessary.
Texas is preparing to do a "study" on water wells and usage. This is obviously a first step toward taxing or charging usage fees for well water.
It will begin with a "survey" of land owners who have water wells -- "how much do you use, how deep is your well", etc....
Then I'm guessing they'll either require a meter on the well, or come up with some kind of metric based on total land area, number of cattle, size of crop producing fields, or whatever.
Should land owners be charged for well water they use?
