dc.description.abstractTexas has established regulatory policy for groundwater and surface water differently, and approaches each as individual processes. Through political inertia and court precedence, this separation has persisted throughout Texas history. According to the Texas Water Code, groundwater is water that resides or flows in the subsurface. It is known as percolating water or well water. Despite the legal separation, through modern technology, we now understand that surface and subsurface waters are inextricably linked.
