Tex. Water Code § 17.278 · Subchapter F. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR WATER QUALITY ENHANCEMENT PURPOSES
FINDINGS REGARDING PERMITS.
Text — Current through the 89th 2nd Called Legislative Session, 2025
If an application includes a proposal for a wastewater treatment plant, the board may not deliver funds for the wastewater treatment plant until the applicant has obtained a permit for the construction and operation of the plant and approval of the plans and specifications for the plant from the commission. If an application includes a proposal for a wastewater treatment plant that is located outside the jurisdiction of this state and that is not subject to the permitting authority of the commission, the board may not deliver funds for the wastewater treatment plant until after the board reviews the plans and specifications in coordination with the commission and finds that the wastewater treatment plant is capable of producing effluent that will meet federal and Texas-approved water quality standards and if effluent produced will result in water being available for use in or for the benefit of Texas.
