It’s that time of year again! Planning is underway for the 15th Annual Texas Groundwater Summit, and we’re excited to announce that presentation proposals are now being accepted. If you are interested in presenting, please submit your proposal using the link below.

The deadline to submit a proposal is March 31, 2026.

The Texas Groundwater Summit is the premier event of the year for groundwater professionals across Texas. Over three days, the Summit brings together experts and stakeholders from across the state to explore emerging trends, share new research, and discuss the most pressing groundwater issues facing Texas.

Attendees can expect:

  • Timely policy discussions following a historic legislative session and leading into what might be another water-focused legislative session
  • Opportunities to learn how groundwater is managed in Texas and the role of groundwater conservation districts
  • Technical sessions highlighting groundwater science, modeling, and research
  • Keynote speakers offering legal and policy perspectives
  • Updates on district-led research and science-based initiatives
  • Ample networking opportunities with over 550 participants, including GCD board and staff members, engineers, attorneys, elected officials, and other groundwater stakeholders
