Staff Report & Agenda Item Details

Update on Seven Seas Project. Mr. Kasy Stinson from Seven Seas provided an update on the Seven Seas project. He stated that a well driller has been selected and will begin working onsite in early June. The process for discussions on well disposal permits with TCEQ has been reactivated. Seven Seas is also selecting an overseeing hydrogeologist who will be onsite with the well driller for all of the testing. Additionally, while the land lease agreement is being finalized, they are working on a land access agreement. M, Stinson also explained that at the Driscoll location, there was a layer of water producing sand that they expected to be present but was not, so when tested, the well was less productive. At the new location, in addition to drilling, logging and verifying thickness of the sand, there is 10 times the acreage which will allow greater water production. Mr, Marez added that the water that is expected to be produced has been included in the Regional Water Planning Group’s Water Plan.
