Water Supply & Logistics

water supply & logistics University Lands plays a key role in Permian Basin groundwater management. The PUF Lands’ geographic positioning over several of the region’s major and minor aquifers - coupled with University Lands’ long-term management horizon - necessitates that water use across PUF Lands be monitored and conserved. At the same time, University Lands works to promote prudent commercial opportunities and support the success of water-related commercial ventures on PUF Lands. University Lands monitors groundwater utilization by requiring all mineral developers to meter and report water sources from PUF lands and imported water. Collectively 622 operator owned water meters and 9 water import meters are reported monthly.
