The section of pipeline runs from the booster pump station on Jack C. Hays Trail in Kyle, east of FM 1626 and the delivery point for the city of Buda, located near the intersection of Old Black Colony Road and Cole Springs Road, according to a Jan. 9 news release from ARWA—formerly the Hays Caldwell Public Utility Agency.
About 18,000 linear feet of the pipeline, which is 24 inches in diameter, will ultimately be run under Jack C. Hays and the Onion Creek area, according to the release, which states that the company will follow best management practices for erosion, sedimentation and traffic.
With funding from San Marcos, Buda, Kyle and the Canyon Regional Water Authority, the ARWA pipeline will bring up to 27 million gallons of water each day from the Carrizo-Wilcox Aquifer by the time it is complete in 2023.
The segment of the pipe currently under construction is expected to be finished at the end of 2020.
